This Sandbox keeps track of all of mainline DC Hitler's 177
appearances. To claim an issue, just put your name next to it, just like you would on a discussion date page. Once you've read the issue, spoiler it out so we can see it's been read, then write down a sentence or two detailing what he does in that comic - once we've gotten everything, we'll combine the worst four or five to create the EP.
Notes
Some stories may feature Hitler's clone, who doesn't count - he kills himself when he sees how bad his "father" was. Luckily the clone only has three appearances, so it shouldn't be much of an issue, but we're only looking for regular Hitler here.
This list specifically mentions flashbacks, cameos, and other unique appearances (such as visions and dreams), but it does not mention posthumous appearances (if any exist).
Some of the books on this list are reprints; I assume in those scenarios that if you read one of them, for all intents and purposes you've read both. When you claim a book, do a CTRL+F on the list to see if there's any with an identical title - I may not have caught all of the reprints and checking them all off at once will make things easier.
If the issue number and title don't match up, it's safe to assume that the title is the correct one of the two - check the link to double check this if such a discrepancy occurs just to be safe.
