Battlefield Action #63

Charlton's Battlefield Action #63 takes an ambitious tour through military history, promising five landmark engagements spanning more than two millennia — from the Battle of Marathon in 490 B.C. all the way to the Battle of Remagen in 1945. The cover, penciled by Bill Molno and inked by Rocco Mastroserio, captures the ancient world in vivid motion: a Roman-era warrior in crested helmet charges on horseback through the smoke and chaos of battle, sword raised, as soldiers clash in the turbulent background. With interior work by the versatile Sam Glanzman and stories by Joe Gill, this 1980 issue delivers the kind of sweeping, historically grounded war anthology that made Charlton a reliable home for readers who liked their combat stories with a little extra scope.
