“Prisoner Exchange”

A steel-helmeted soldier lunges forward across a war-torn landscape on this Russ Heath cover, gripping his rifle with fierce determination while parachutes dot the smoky sky above and fellow troops advance in the background — every line radiating the tension of men under fire. Atlas Comics' Battlefront #28 (1955) promises "all new war tales," including the featured story "Prisoner Exchange" and the provocatively titled "Position Hopeless!" — which the cover cheerfully dares to question. Heath's draftsmanship brings a visceral, ground-level urgency to this monthly anthology that any fan of 1950s war comics will appreciate.
