Captain Willy Schultz is a fictional comic-book soldier, a German-American U.S. Army captain during World War II, who after being falsely accused and convicted of murder, escapes and blends into the German Army while seeking a way to clear his name and retain his Allied allegiance. Created by writer Will Franz and artist Sam Glanzman, the character starred in the feature "The Lonely War of Willy Schultz", which debuted in Charlton Comics' ''Fightin' Army'' #76 (cover-dated Oct. 1967). The Willy Schultz storyline was a departure from most other combat features of this time, with its conflicted hero caught between loyalties. Writer Franz opposed the American war in Vietnam,〔(Franz appearance (along with Joe Gill and Sam Glanzman) ).

Willy Schultz'', and reprinted another Willy Schultz story in its one-shot ''Star Combat Tales'' #1 (Oct. 18, 2000).〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Captain Willy Schultz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
