Don Winslow of the Navy #59

This July 1948 Fawcett issue puts Don Winslow front and center in a sleek, futuristic purple craft numbered 63, banking hard over open water while an explosion blooms against a warship in the background — a cover that crackles with aerial tension. The tagline promises "explosive, high-powered, punch-packed thrills," and the image more than backs it up, with Winslow in full naval uniform, focused and determined at the controls. Writer Dick Kraus delivers the adventure with the story "Shanghaied," making this a vivid slice of 1948 comic-book excitement starring the Navy's ace troubleshooter.
