Vladek then reports that when Artie was a baby, his arm sometimes "jumped up." Vladek reports that he and Anja "joked and called you 'Heil Hitler" (32). This scene raises the question of the role that jokes and humor can play within a text about the Holocaust. Indeed, when they are staying at the sanitarium, Vladek tells jokes to Anja in hopes of improving her health (37). What role does humor play in Art Spiegelman's Maus?

Do jokes help the survivors to reclaim their humanity?
