G.I. Combat #207

At a full dollar for 80 pages of all-new war stories, G.I. Combat #207 (May 1978) was one of DC's most ambitious anthology packages of its era. Joe Kubert's cover is a striking collision of eras — a ghostly Civil War cavalry soldier on horseback looms dramatically over a WWII Sherman tank exchanging fire in the chaos below, surrounding vignettes teasing stories like "Foxhole for a Sherman," "The Piper Who Wouldn't Die," "If a Bullet's Got Your Name," "Code Name: Sledgehammer," "Dead Shot for a Gunner," and "Ladybird Scores Zero." Robert Kanigher and Sam Glanzman bring their signature grit to the interior pages, making this a satisfying single-issue package for any fan of war comics done right.
