Von Hammer's legacy was featured in the Franchise/{{Batman}} story, "Ghost of the Killer Skies"[[note]]''Detective Comics'' #404 (October, 1970)[[/note]]. When sabotage and murder occur on the set of a movie (produced by Bruce Wayne) about Von Hammer's career, Batman investigates. Von Hammer himself does not appear[[spoiler:... or does he?]].
In later years, Von Hammer would occasionally turn up here and there, including at least one TimeTravel adventure in which he met the Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica. Other stories showed that Von Hammer survived the war. In the pulp-flavored 1920s-set ''Guns of the Dragon'' miniseries, von Hammer teamed up with an odd assortment of DC characters to fight the immortal ComicBook/VandalSavage. In Creator/GarthEnnis' 2001 ''Enemy Ace: War In Heaven'', we see von Hammer in an even more morally conflicted state, as he serves in the Luftwaffe during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. And the 1989 graphic novel ''Enemy Ace: War Idyll'' shows von Hammer dying in 1969, after a final interview with an American [[UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar Vietnam veteran]].

Created by Creator/RobertKanigher and Joe Kubert in 1965, it was inspired by tales of Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron. The character first appeared in ''Our Army at War'' #151 (February, 1965). The feature was groundbreaking in its portrayal of an "enemy" soldier as the sympathetic protagonist of a war comic. The stories typically drew a contrast between Von Hammer, a gentleman and "knight of the sky", and the horrors of a war that increasingly had no place for such chivalry.

* IAmNotShazam: He is often erroneously called "Enemy Ace" by other characters during time-travelling guest appearances or in other media. His actual InUniverse moniker is "the Hammer of Hell". He is, of course, an "enemy ace" to the Entente, but as a nickname it wouldn't make any sense.
