Combat Casey #27

Atlas Comics' war series charges forward with Combat Casey #27, cover-dated April 1956, promising "All New War Tales!" at a dime a copy. Carl Burgos's cover artwork crackles with raw energy — a red-bearded Combat Casey hoists an enemy soldier clean off the ground amid explosions and artillery fire, while a second opponent reels from a punch in the foreground and GIs press forward in the smoke-filled background. Billed as "The Infantry's Red-Bearded Riot," this issue invites readers to join Casey and find out exactly what stopped Dog Company.
