G.I. Combat #231

This July 1981 issue of DC's "The Big War Book" promises cover-to-cover battle action, and Joe Kubert's cover delivers exactly that — the Haunted Tank charges across a field of giant thousand-dollar bills, blasting a WWII bomber apart in a moment that teases the story's boldly advertised "$150 Million Shot." Surrounding vignettes hint at the additional tales packed inside, including "The Trojan Tank," "Tin Pot Lottery," "Passport for Escape," and "The Time-Bomb Spy," making good on the "2 Comics in 1!" promise. For fans of classic war comics, this ad-free double-sized package — written by George Kashdan and drawn by Dick Ayers — is a satisfying slice of early-'80s DC military storytelling.
