To get a 3D effect, Photoshop CC now has a 3D + Extrude menu, which is widely used by poster designers worldwide. Developed in the style of a political campaign poster, ideogramming the title in the Japanese version adds an extra kick. The message that comes across is very (or almost too) basic. Not really surprising in a way, as the cartoons first sprang from Jack Kirby and Joe Simon’s sharpened pencils in December 1940 as a reaction to Nazi tyranny which the United States would move against a few years later. You’d think you’re in the middle of Cold War what with all the pro-Washington propaganda. Their comic book aspect glorifying Uncle Sam, and the timeless All American Hero.
