Nazism is the ideology and set of practices associated with the 20th-century German Nazi Party in Nazi Germany and of other alt-right groups. Often in superhero fiction, Nazi Germany appears as a common threat in the Golden Age of comic books and remains a recurring threat to this day, due to their support of hatred and fascism, ideals opposed by majority of superheroes in fiction.
History
Prior to America's involvement in World War II, there were very few direct references to the Nazi party. Often analogues were used, many comics created featured fictional European nations with vague regimes and strife which mirrored in superficial ways Germany but where often not direct parallels.
