Battlefield #4

From Atlas/Marvel's Korean War-era anthology series comes this tense October 1952 installment, offering a full 52 big pages of combat action. Carl Burgos's cover pulls no punches — a steel-helmeted American soldier grapples hand-to-hand with an enemy fighter on the ground, a knife raised in the desperate close-quarters struggle, while two more enemy soldiers loom in the rocky background. Inside, Joe Sinnott illustrates "Mop-Up Squad," promising the kind of gritty frontline storytelling that made Battlefield a worthy ten-cent read.
