Combat #32

Dell's Combat #32 brings the chaos of WWII aerial warfare to vivid life, with Sam Glanzman's cover painting depicting a helpless airman tumbling through a flak-torn sky as American B-17 Flying Fortresses press their bombing run through explosions and enemy fighters. The cover copy sets the scene perfectly — "The air screamed with bullets and bombs as our Flying Fortresses rained destruction into Regensburg, the heart of the Luftwaffe" — and Glanzman's fiery red sky and swarming aircraft make that promise feel immediate and intense. For fans of honest, grounded war comics, this 1971 issue delivers a striking reminder of what Dell's War-Stories line did so well.
