Fightin' Army #156

Charlton's long-running war anthology delivers another front-line clash in this February 1982 issue, with cover art by Rocco "Rocke" Mastroserio capturing a close-quarters firefight between American GIs and enemy soldiers — a bayonet-tipped rifle cutting across the frame as one combatant is sent reeling and a muzzle flash erupts in the background. The vivid purple-to-pink sky gives the scene an almost surreal intensity that sets it apart from more straightforward war covers of the era. Inside, Joe Gill's script and Larry Woromay's art bring "The Kewpie-Dolls" to life, promising the gritty battlefield storytelling that made Fightin' Army a reliable staple for war comics fans.
