G.I. Combat #244

This dollar-sized "Big War Book" packs serious punch, with Joe Kubert's cover showcasing a grimly determined tank commander manning a gun and shouting "You're dead, Slim — but this one's for you!" — raw emotion etched into every line. Four story-preview panels along the right side tease the issue's range, from a cavalry charge against tanks to aerial combat, mercenaries in the field, and soldiers storming a beachhead under fire. Headlined by "Different War — Same Faces!", this 1982 DC anthology delivers the kind of hard-edged wartime drama that made G.I. Combat America's go-to fighting magazine.
