Fightin' Army #16

This 1956 Charlton war anthology delivers exactly what its tagline promises — breathtaking action stories, starting right on the cover. Bill Molno's pencils and Vince Alascia's inks put readers smack in the middle of a tense amphibious assault, with helmeted GIs charging through churning water under fire, beach obstacles and explosions surrounding them on all sides. At a dime a copy, Fightin' Army #16 brought gritty, boots-on-the-ground combat drama straight to newsstands, with interior art by Mel Keefer adding even more firepower to the package.
