WILLARD COMBES, Cleveland Press
After the detonation of the nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, at the end of World War II, world leaders and scientists alike discussed their further military use. Although the United States was the only world power to have used nuclear weapons in 1945, it did not take long for the Soviet Union, England, France, and China to manufacture them. Willard Combes, who drew for the Cleveland Press for twenty-eight years, warned of the dangers but, unlike other cartoonists, chose to use a classic cartoonish bomb. |
