G.I. Combat #66

DC's long-running war anthology delivers a striking November 1958 cover from Jerry Grandenetti, depicting a soldier bursting through a storm of explosions, flame, smoke, and barbed wire with arms outstretched — a figure seemingly propelled by the chaos of battle itself. The fiery halo of color erupting behind him gives the image an almost mythic energy, perfectly suited to a story billing itself as featuring "The Eagle of Easy Co.!" With Bill Finger on writing duties and Grandenetti handling both pencils and inks inside, this ten-cent issue offers a compelling snapshot of DC's golden age of war comics.
