!!! Short version

The Team encounters the Krieger brothers, who led the Nazi assault on the Watchtower, and kills them with assistance from a non-evil clone of Adolf Hitler.

!!! Longer version



Immediately afterward, the undead Einherjar on the Watchtower are reanimated, suggesting that a portal to Valhalla has been opened. The Team is sent to find the likely suspects, Wolf and Albrecht Krieger. Paul's group visits a man named Helmut Schreiber, who turns out to be a clone of Hitler. The Kriegers attack the house, disabling Paul and Schreiber with the Spear of Destiny, and announce their intention to use Schreiber as a [[SympatheticMagic sympathetic focus]] to retrieve Hitler's soul and create a magical champion of fascism. However, Rocket creates enough of a distraction for Paul and Schreiber to break free and strike back, killing both of their assailants.

!! Episode 43: Triumph of the Will

Takes place April 3-11

Paul gives the Justice League a performance evaluation, resulting in several equipment upgrades such as Superman wearing a shield against kryptonite radiation. Unfortunately, Nabu flatly rejects his offer to provide a strong, resilient and easily repairable golem body.

Immediately afterward, the undead Einherjar on the Watchtower are reanimated, suggesting that a portal to Valhalla has been opened. The Team is sent to find the likely suspects, Wolf and Albrecht Krieger. Paul's group visits a man named Helmut Schreiber, who turns out to be a clone of Hitler.

* AmplifierArtifact: The Spear of Destiny constantly maintains a [[SympatheticMagic magical connection]] to ''everyone on Earth'', allowing the wielder to bypass most of the usual safeguards that make it difficult to, for example, casually mind control the world. Paul's magic contact wants to destroy it, but can't think of a safe method. It also works as an AntiMagic weapon.
