"Bouncing Bertha" delivers a sharp, satirical twist on mid-20th-century consumer culture, wrapped in the unmistakable style of Harvey Kurtzman and Jack Davis. This 1951 issue from Superior Comics presents a wry, visually inventive take on a fictional hand-held film viewer, all drawn with the crisp, exaggerated flair that defines the era’s humor comics. The cover, a bold, dynamic piece by Kurtzman himself, captures the absurdity of the product with deadpan precision.

Contains 4 stories
Bouncing Bertha
8 pp · War

In "Bouncing Bertha," a weary tank crew—led by Allen Burke—rides into danger aboard their M-46 Patton, the bulky "Bouncing Bertha," as they push through enemy-infested terrain. When the tank breaks down and the enemy closes in, the crew’s escape hinges on a sudden aerial assault and a rescue helicopter that takes four of them to safety—leaving Burke behind to face the fury of a vengeful enemy force.

Zero Hour
7 pp · War

In "Zero Hour," a tense moment unfolds as new recruits brace for battle, their nerves frayed under the weight of war. When a sudden German machine gun attack shatters the silence, panic sets in—especially when a wounded young soldier is trapped in the barbed wire, screaming for help, and each attempt to save him ends in tragedy. The Sergeant, faced with an impossible choice, makes a decision that will haunt him.

Gettysburg!
6 pp · War

In the brutal third day of the Battle of Gettysburg, a lone Union soldier known as Alabama finds himself caught in the chaos of Pickett’s Charge, where 14,000 Confederate troops surge toward Union lines. When a Southern officer approaches him in the smoke and dust, Alabama strikes without hesitation—only to discover, too late, that the man he killed was his own father.

Contact!
7 pp · War

In "Contact!", a young American soldier named Durkee learns the hard way that underestimating the enemy can be deadly. As the battle rages, he’s forced to confront the reality that the North Korean Army is far more formidable than he ever imagined.
