Battlefield Action #72

Charlton's long-running war anthology delivers another tense chapter with Battlefield Action #72, cover-dated December 1981. Jack Keller's cover art puts you right in the thick of an aerial engagement — a dark Allied bomber dominates the foreground while a German aircraft explodes in fiery orange behind it, a lone parachute drifting away through the smoke-filled sky. Inside, Joe Gill's script and Tom Sutton's complete art and lettering bring "Kamayoto's Last Stand" to life, promising the kind of gritty, grounded war storytelling this series built its reputation on.
