Army Attack #4

From Charlton's gritty war line comes this 1965 installment featuring the story "Sniper Hunt." The cover, penciled and inked by Dick Giordano, puts you right in the thick of a beach assault — a helmeted soldier in the foreground raises his weapon as fellow GIs push forward through smoke, debris, and the chaos of a contested shoreline with ships visible in the distance. It's a tense, ground-level composition that captures the grinding danger of combat, and with Joe Gill writing and Charles Nicholas on interior art, this twelve-cent issue delivers the no-nonsense war storytelling Charlton did so well in the mid-1960s.
