Battleground #7

Battleground #7 delivers a tense front-line moment straight from the Korean War era, with Russ Heath's cover depicting a grim, determined rifleman crouched low in the brush, his weapon blazing as steel-helmeted soldiers advance through the smoke behind him. The tagline "Under Fire!" captures the mood perfectly — this is close-quarters combat rendered with Heath's sharp, visceral linework. Inside, Mort Drucker brings "The Rifleman!" to life with all-brand-new war tales promised right on the cover, making this a solid ten-cent package of 1955 battlefield drama.
