** {{Satan}} is never even directly confronted in-comic, let alone punished for masterminding World War II.
** Flame and Bruta escape after supplying Hitler with a super weapon that could win him the war.
** As the comic ended in 1943, UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler makes a narrow escape from Kismet's wrath. However, if this universe follows history, he will get his comeuppance soon enough.

* RippedFromTheHeadlines: ''Bomber Comics'' #1's plot is lifted directly from the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich. Both concern the successful elimination of a notoriously cruel Nazi colonel in Czechoslovakia, and the Nazis retaliating by massacring a nearby town of 7,000. The primary difference here is that the massacre is thwarted.

!!This comic contains examples of:

* AdolfHitlarious: Der Fuehrer spends his screen time being made a fool of by [[TheLegionsOfHell more powerful forces]].
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Kismet is slightly darker-pigmented than the white characters, and is of a religion commonly associated with the Middle East, but it's never made clear what ethnicity he is.
* BigBad: {{Satan}} himself is the puppet master behind the Third Reich.
* DiscOneFinalBoss: In ''Bomber Comics'' #1, Kismet's goal is to assassinate Colonel Freydrich, a Nazi nicknamed "the Headsman" for his wanton cruelty. Freydrich is taken out about halfway through; the rest of the issue is focused on Germany's reprisal.
* EvilVegetarian: Just like in RealLife, Hitler mentions that meat eaters "turn [his] stomach."
* GotVolunteered: ''Bomber Comics'' #4 has Kismet saving a bunch of villagers who were forced into building a giant tank this way.
* GuileHero: Kismet enjoys making fools out of his enemies.
* KarmaHoudini:
** [[Satan]] is never even directly confronted in-comic, let alone punished for masterminding World War II.
** Flame and Bruta escape after supplying Hitler with a super weapon that could win him the war.
* OneDropRule: Despite Mrs. van Hadden being primarily German ethnically, her Nazi general husband tries to kill her for her French blood on orders to kill 100 French.
* ProtagonistTitle

* RoleCalled
* StarterVillain: The first foe we see is Colonel Freydrich, a Nazi official so cruel he's called "the Headsman." He doesn't even survive halfway through the issue.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Kismet wears everything expected of a superhero, including a NiceHat, except a shirt.
* WeDidntStartTheFuhrer: Hitler is apparently an agent of Hell here.
