G.I. Combat #200

G.I. Combat reaches its 200th issue with a gala celebration, and Joe Kubert's cover makes it count — the Haunted Tank charges forward under aerial fire, surrounded by a gallery of star-framed soldiers' faces representing guest stars Sgt. Rock and the Losers. The bold banner promising a book-length blockbuster, "The Tank That Died Twice!", gives the milestone issue a fittingly grand sense of occasion. Robert Kanigher and Sam Glanzman deliver the interiors on one of DC's most enduring war titles, making this March 1977 issue a fine showcase for the gritty, human side of wartime storytelling.
