Attack #56

This February 1959 Charlton issue puts Sam Glanzman's dynamic linework on full display, with a cover depicting a fierce mounted melee — a shirtless warrior on horseback brandishing a blade at the center, surrounded by armored fighters with swords and shields clashing in a chaotic cavalry skirmish. The energy of the scene practically spills off the page, capturing the kind of raw, kinetic combat storytelling that made Charlton's adventure titles so appealing at a dime a copy. Inside, Joe Gill's script pairs with Glanzman's art in "You Ride with Crazy Horse" — and as a bonus, readers in 1959 could find details on a contest offering 8,000 prizes right inside the issue.
