G.I. Combat #226

DC's long-running war anthology comes packed with value in this February 1981 issue — six stories, no ads, all for a dollar. Joe Kubert's cover pulls you straight into the chaos, with a wide-eyed tank crewman in an orange flight suit reeling backward as a Nazi-marked locomotive bears down through fire and smoke, while a small tank lurks in the corner and inset panels tease additional tales including "Executed by a Dead Man," "G.I. Who Quit the War," and "The 6-Minute War." With Haunted Tank thrillers headlined by "Bridge of Blood" and "The Tank Nobody Wanted," this jam-packed issue captures everything that made G.I. Combat America's go-to battle magazine.
