Gwandanaland Comics #274-A

This 2019 Gwandanaland Comics collection brings together Charlton war stories under the Fightin' Army banner, spotlighting the saga of "The Steel Halo" with writing by Joe Gill and interior art by Charles Nicholas and Sal Trapani. The cover, penciled by Pat Masulli and inked by Rocco Mastroserio, delivers a quietly powerful image: a battle-worn soldier in tattered fatigues trudges forward, while a battered steel helmet looms dramatically in the foreground — a striking contrast of human fragility against the heavy machinery of war. It's a thoughtful, evocative entry point into Charlton's gritty mid-century military storytelling.
