Lyndon B. Johnson

A real-world figure immortalized in Silver Age panels, Lyndon B. Johnson made his comics debut in 1968 within the pages of Capitão Z (3ª Série) #10 — a Brazilian publication from Editora Brasil-América (EBAL) bearing the creative stamp of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Turning up across a handful of EBAL titles including Os Falcões and Super X, the 36th President of the United States became an unexpected presence in the colorful, action-packed world of Brazilian comics during one of history's most turbulent years. With one of his three catalogued appearances recognized as a key issue, this is a genuinely rare and fascinating slice of comics history — a reminder that the Silver Age knew no borders, and that the line between the news and the funny pages could blur in the most remarkable ways.
