Yalta to Korea

Yalta to Korea is an unusual entry in comics history: a single-issue, non-fiction comic published in 1952 by the Republican National, Congressional, and Senatorial Committees, produced through the Graphic Information Service. Rather than a superhero or adventure story, it presents a political argument using the comic format, tracing the arc of U.S. foreign policy from the Yalta Conference to the Korean War. Though it had no ongoing run, this pamphlet is a notable artifact of the mid-century use of comics for partisan political messaging, reflecting the era's belief in the medium's persuasive power.
