“Pvt. Penny's Secret Weapon”

That cover by Russ Heath says everything you need to know about Combat Casey's intensity — a grim, red-bearded soldier in a steel helmet charges directly at the reader, submachine gun blazing, with a smoky battlefield and a crashing aircraft visible behind him. The tagline "The Infantry's Red-Bearded Riot!" captures the rough-and-tumble spirit of Atlas Comics' Korean War series perfectly. Inside, writer Hank Chapman and artist Robert Q. Sale deliver "Pvt. Penny's Secret Weapon," making this 1953 issue a solid pick for fans of hard-hitting wartime adventure.
