G.I. Combat #108

In "The Wounded Won't Wait!", two soldiers from different fronts— a World War I pilot and a doughboy— compete for the heart of Tammy, who promises to marry the one who returns a hero. When the pilot’s plane jams mid-flight, it’s the doughboy who saves the day by shooting down enemy fighters, only to later face a deadly gas attack. The pilot, stranded and injured, still manages to clear the gas and ram a tank, proving his courage. But in the end, both are left stunned by the same letter: Tammy has married a desk jockey. Written by Hank Chapman and illustrated by Jerry Grandenetti, with inks by Grandenetti and letters by Joe Letterese, this poignant wartime tale unfolds with grit and quiet heartbreak. The cover, by Joe Kubert, captures the moment of emotional reckoning.
