Fightin' Army #95

Charlton's Fightin' Army #95 puts the spotlight squarely on command and conscience, promising "a penetrating study of a very special type combat man… The General." The cover by Miguel A. Repetto sets the tension immediately: a standing officer rides confidently in a military jeep while his driver's thought bubble simmers with resentment — "Look at him, posing like a hero for the newspaper and newsreel while the rest of the outfit is getting killed!" — as P-51-style fighter planes streak through a stormy sky overhead and soldiers watch from the foreground. Interior art from Charles Nicholas and Vince Alascia brings the story "No More Medals for Me!" to life, making this 15-cent 1971 issue a compact but pointed look at the friction between glory and sacrifice in wartime.
