A gripping wartime tale from 1954, "Iwo Jima" follows two Marines, McGraw and Gorski, as they outmaneuver a cunning enemy operative, Lee-Sik, in a high-stakes mission to disrupt enemy supply lines. With Russ Heath handling both the interior art and cover, this issue delivers intense realism and sharp storytelling in a tense, action-driven narrative.

In "null," a tense game of cat and mouse unfolds as the elusive Lee-Sik attempts to ambush Marines McGraw and Gorski, only to be outmaneuvered. Trapped and forced to reveal the communists' supply route through a key bridge, the two Marines set a clever trap of their own—sabotaging the structure so that nightfall will bring disaster to unsuspecting trucks. As Lee-Sik rushes to warn the approaching drivers, her fate hangs in the balance just before the first vehicle plows into the hidden gap.
