Gwandanaland Comics #264-A

This Gwandanaland Comics collection reprints Fightin' Army #17, a Charlton war title that promised "Breathtaking Action Stories" — and the Maurice Whitman cover delivers exactly that mood. A grim-faced soldier dominates the foreground, a pistol thrust menacingly close to his head, while troops push a rubber assault raft through churned waters against a backdrop of smoke, flames, and rocky shoreline. It's a vivid snapshot of mid-century military comics at their most intense, gathered here in a handy readers collection for fans of classic wartime adventure.
