G.I. Combat #205

Part of DC's 1977 Dollar Comics line, this oversized issue of G.I. Combat packs a full 80 pages of all-new stories into one hefty package — remarkable value for the era. Joe Kubert's cover pulls you straight into the action: soldiers grapple desperately in the foreground while the famous Haunted Tank looms behind them beneath a Japanese rising-sun flag, the whole scene radiating the gritty intensity Kubert brought to wartime illustration. Inside, Robert Kanigher and Sam Glanzman deliver multiple features — including Haunted Tank tales, O.S.S. Spies stories, and "Soldier in Pigtails" — making this one of the more ambitious anthology packages DC put together that year.
