☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Time-Bomb Tank!", a new pilot takes the wheel of the legendary Mustang #777—known less for its pilot than for surviving every mission. Written by Hank Chapman and illustrated by Jack Abel with inks by Abel and letters by Gaspar Saladino, the story follows a fighter ace who pushes his battered plane to the limit, surviving crashes, enemy fire, and even a dramatic ejection—only to find the plane still in the fight, sinking a battleship. The cover by Joe Kubert captures the intensity of the moment, as the pilot prepares for another run in the unkillable machine.
In "Time-Bomb Tank!" from G.I. Combat #105, Jeb and his crew investigate the eerie fate of the abandoned tank Marie Celeste, a ghostly relic left behind with no sign of its crew—just silence and the lingering threat of a ticking time bomb. The mystery unfolds in the frozen wasteland of war-torn Europe, where every clue points to something beyond the battlefield.
In "The Plane That Wouldn't Die!" from G.I. Combat #105, a new pilot takes flight in the battered but unyielding Mustang known as #777—legendary for surviving every mission, even when its pilot doesn’t. Though he pushes the plane to its limits, destroying enemy tanks, blowing bridges, and ramming enemy fighters, the credit for the kills goes to the plane itself. When he ejects and the aircraft still sinks a battleship, he’s reassigned to the same machine the next day, now a myth in the sky.
