Capt. Storm #16

From the Pacific theater of 1966's DC war comics comes this gripping issue of Capt. Storm, P.T. Boat Skipper, promising "Battle of the Stinging Mosquito!" — with the cover tagline telling us Storm fights an admiral to meet the enemy eyeball to eyeball. Irv Novick's cover art puts you right in the action: a yellow enemy aircraft fills the frame in a dramatic low-angle view, bursting with explosions and gunfire, while a determined soldier in the foreground looks up into the teeth of the attack. Robert Kanigher and Jack Abel bring the interior story to life in what looks to be one of the series' most intense naval combat adventures.
