In "Captain Yellabird," Don Perlin’s dynamic art brings to life a tense moment at Guadalcanal, where a young Marine’s faith in his commanding officer is tested under fire. When Sgt Ellenby is demoted after questioning his captain’s courage, the weight of duty and loyalty hangs in the balance. Sam Glanzman’s cover captures the raw intensity of war, framing a moment that echoes through the ranks.
