Battlefront #45

Atlas Comics' Battlefront #45 from 1957 delivers a cover by John Severin that crackles with frontline tension — a shouting enemy commander lunges forward, pistol raised, as a massive wave of rifle-bearing soldiers surges behind him through billowing flame and smoke. American GIs take aim from their position in the foreground, caught in the teeth of what the cover calls "The Raiders Strike!" This issue promises three hard-edged war tales, including "Colonel Chang's Last Stand!" and "The Face of the Enemy!", with interior art by Joe Sinnott — a solid package for any fan of 1950s combat comics.
