Combat #2

Dell's Combat series brings the intensity of aerial warfare to vivid life in this January 1961 issue, its cover depicting a formation of Japanese fighter planes — their bold red Rising Sun markings unmistakable — diving through a smoky sky as explosions and falling bombs erupt below. The stark cover text sets the scene with chilling precision: "The Japanese lost 28 planes… the U.S. half of its Pacific fleet. It all took place in 120 minutes." With Sam Glanzman handling the art, lettering, and inking throughout, "Pearl Harbor Map" promises a gripping look at one of history's most dramatic moments.
