Don Winslow of the Navy #9

The cover of this November 1943 Fawcett issue drops you right into the thick of wartime action — Don Winslow descends under a parachute, rifle in hand, with enemy paratroopers visible in the skies around him and a battle-scarred landscape spread out below. The bold cover blurb promises he'll be "seeing action with the Fighting Marines," setting an appropriately rugged, all-fronts tone for the story within, "Fisherman's Fate!" At just 10 cents, this is a vivid snapshot of wartime adventure comics doing exactly what they did best in 1943.
