An expanded edition of previous release, Die Haschwalth’s, creator Lanier Burton once more takes us on a journey looking at the final confrontation of a Nazi in the early 20th century, and how his actions, not to mention his twisted beliefs, seem to filter through his lineage over the course of the next several decades.

Burton employs an almost bewildering array of styles here, with the overall manga-esque panels and art giving way to a variety of techniques, including Game Boy pixel art and a storybook style sequence.

As mentioned in my review of the earlier edition, Die Haschwalth’s is, some may say sadly, perfectly timed, given so many events of the last few years worldwide. Burton does a great job of showing how bigots continuously frame themselves as the victims, despite their despicable actions and views.

Burton self-funds and publishes his comics, such as Man in Machine, and his creativity has even seen him produce a soundtrack for Die Haschwalth’s. You can find this, and links to buy the comic, at Lanier Burton’s website. Die Haschwalth’s Deluxe is also available to read via GlobalComix.

Despite some difficult subject matter (which goes to some strange places at times), Die Haschwalth’s Deluxe is well worth checking out.
