G.I. Combat #281

This oversized "Big War Book" edition of G.I. Combat #281 delivers more than 40 pages of wartime action, spotlighting the Haunted Tank going up against "The School for Assassins," plus features on The Mercenaries (Soldiers of Fortune), The Bravos of Vietnam, and more. Joe Kubert's cover art pulls you straight into the chaos — a star-marked Allied tank and an iron-crossed German tank exchanging fire at close range beneath a crumbling structure, while enemy soldiers scramble along the girders above. It's a dense, kinetic scene that captures exactly the kind of desperate, grinding combat DC's long-running war anthology did so well in 1986.
