“The Andes Mystery”

A jet fighter screams low over a burning tank in this October 1961 Charlton war title, with enemy ground fire erupting and additional aircraft streaking through the smoke-filled sky above. The cover — penciled by Sal Trapani and inked by Dick Giordano — captures the heat and chaos of close air support in vivid, dramatic style. With a tagline asking "What are heroes made of?" and the featured story "Follow Me Down" promised inside, this issue delivers the kind of pulse-quickening aerial action that made Fightin' Air Force a reliable ten-cent treat.
