General Glory is the name of two DC Comics characters. The persona is mostly used by writers as a parody of Marvel's Captain America with exaggerated "patriotic values" and a sidekick called Ernie (aka Ernie The Battling Boy), who was similar to Bucky. General Glory first appeared in Justice League International #46 as a 1940s style hero placed in a modern world, resulting in cultural differences and personality issues. Whereas Captain America is patriotic, heroic, and rational, General Glory is so blindly patriotic that it approaches the point of fault, unwilling and psychologically unable to believe that his country or international peacekeeping organizations have a dark side. He was introduced as a comic foil for the jingoistic Green Lantern corps member Guy Gardner in the early 1990s.

  • General Glory è un personaggio dei fumetti pubblicati dalla DC Comics, creato sulle pagine di Justice League America n. 46 nel gennaio 1991 da Keith Giffen e J.M. DeMatteis. Ideato come parodia dell'eroe Marvel Comics Capitan America, è caratterizzato da un esagerato patriottismo al limite dell'esasperazione. Ha anche un sidekick, Ernie The Battling Boy, che richiama esplicitamente Bucky, spalla storica del Capitano. Il personaggio è stato costantemente ridicolizzato nella serie Lobo's Back di Simon Bisley e Alan Grant. (it)
