How does one properly celebrate the birthdays of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, two of America's most beloved Presidents?
True, half-price mattress sales and yet another vacation day for government workers are the traditional ways we celebrate these remarkable gentlemen...but this year, superhero comic books add their unique voice to the chorus of deeply moving tributes:
A hulking, 9 foot George Washington from Hit Comics #44 (1947) and the giant Lincoln Statue attack robot from Captain America #222 (1978) combine to create a patriotic salute no mattress savings or closed Department of Motor Vehicles could ever hope to equal...much less surpass.
So here's to you, George and Abe...Happy Birthday!
