I've had this issue laying in the trunk of my car for sometime and I just dug it out and reread it.

I don't think thats Aric in the suit. It's another x-o manowar suit. If I remember correctly Magnus wins.

There was a future Nazi in the XO armor.

Magnus and 1-A beat him.

Magnus knocked him out inside the armor while 1-A put the armor in sleep mode. :thumb:

I think he was working for the Aryantine, which if I recall was in South America.

Never quite got why it would be there.

Enjoyed this issue as well altho some of it was a little odd (flying swastika robot? wtf). And I guess your cool if you run around in the future with a big box straped to your wrist. Worst ion cannon ever.

That one passed one step before getting to me, but not long after '96. I have had the great pleasure of buying directly from Jim also. He's just as great a person as he is as an artist.

I'm guessing it's because some higher-up Nazis fled to South America post WW2, Mengele, for one, spent a lot of time post-war in Argentina.

A few films use the idea (Marathon Man, Boys from Brazil... probably some others).

I thought Magnus was flipping the switch in the back of the X-O armor to make it grow a third arm.
