Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Set in a Crapsack World of Depressed Animals where murder is legal, this short 2007 comic book by Jason follows the life of two unnamed characters: a Professional Killer and his girlfriend. After dumping her, the hero is visited by an old man who hires him for an unusual job: to go back in time and kill Adolf Hitler. It doesn't go as planned: a guard interferes, and the Fuhrer hijacks the time machine, leaving him to go back to his time using The Slow Path. Now, as an old man, he goes back to his former girlfriend to ask her for help in dealing with the mess he's made. |

The Slow Path |
| | I Killed Adolf Hitler (Comic Book) / int_1c7a7a52 |
comment |
The Slow Path: After Hitler hijacks his time machine, this is how the hero returns to present. The heroine does it too, but differently: she changes the present by waiting for 50 years while the time machine is charging, then going back. |

comment |
Nameless Narrative: Almost. Hitler is known by his name, and there is a name given for the heroine's date, but most of the characters, including the main ones, stay nameless. |

Temporal Mutability |
| | I Killed Adolf Hitler (Comic Book) / int_ca9e3345 |
comment |
Temporal Mutability: Very low. Changing the past doesn't seem to affect present at all. Lampshaded by the heroine: "Hitler disappeared in 1938. There was no World War II. Shouldn't the world have become better?" |

Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act: Hitler does disappear in 1938, and WWII doesn't happen, but the world is exactly the same as it was. We don't know the details. |

Red Herring |
| | I Killed Adolf Hitler (Comic Book) / int_dbca2c99 |
comment |
Red Herring: Main characters stalk the historian, expecting Hitler to visit him. He doesn't. Also Hitler himself, while being the story's focus, is strangely irrelevant to the events: his disappearance from the past doesn't change the world, and he does absolutely nothing in the future. |
