Battlefield Action #78

Charlton's long-running war anthology delivers another tense chapter with issue #78, featuring a cover by Tom Sutton that drops readers right into a fierce aerial engagement. A heavily battered green bomber — the "Lucky Lady" herself, presumably — pushes through a chaotic sky crowded with enemy fighters, smoke, and bursts of flame erupting from her engines. Sutton's dynamic draftsmanship makes the whole scene crackle with urgency, a fitting send-off for Charlton's brand of straight-ahead wartime drama in 1982.
