“Live Wire for Easy”

In "Live Wire for Easy," a gripping tale from G.I. Combat #57, former swimmer Jim Turner faces his greatest challenge yet—escaping Nazi pursuit by swimming the English Channel, a feat he once failed in peacetime. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated with gritty precision by Russ Heath, this wartime survival story blends personal history with high-stakes action, all rendered in the stark, powerful style that defined the series. The cover by Jerry Grandenetti captures the tension with a striking, dynamic image of the moment.
