Another one that is a little hard to categorize: Dr. Seuss Goes to War: The World War II: Editorial Cartoons of Theodor Seuss Geisel isn't just the cartoons, but also includes commentary/context about the cartoons by Richard H. Minear and an intro by Art Spiegelman, so it seems more like a history book - which is where Kindle has it, although in "Military History Pictorials", not straight history - than a comic book. So, I'm posting it here.

Quote:
“A fascinating collection” of wartime cartoons from the beloved children’s author and illustrator (The New York Times Book Review).

For decades, readers throughout the world have enjoyed the marvelous stories and illustrations of Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss. But few know the work Geisel did as a political cartoonist during World War II, for the New York daily newspaper PM. In these extraordinarily trenchant cartoons, Geisel presents “a provocative history of wartime politics” (Entertainment Weekly). Dr. Seuss Goes to War features handsome, large-format reproductions of more than two hundred of Geisel’s cartoons, alongside “insightful” commentary by the historian Richard H. Minear that places them in the context of the national climate they reflect (Booklist).

Pulitzer Prize–winner Art Spiegelman’s introduction places Seuss firmly in the pantheon of the leading political cartoonists of our time.
