->If Hitler had not created [[ThoseWackyNazis the Nazis]], fiction would have had to invent them. From Indiana Jones movies to Hellboy comics to just about every post-1933 modern game setting, “Nazis” fill a convenient role as faceless villains. Like orcs in fantasy settings or insectlike aliens in science fiction, they possess a fierce facade and the reputation to match it, which only it makes it all the more satisfying when a square-jawed hero levels his weapon and mows them down by the dozens.
