Our Army at War #126

This January 1963 DC issue puts Sgt. Rock's Easy Company in a desperate midnight fix, rendered in Russ Heath's sharp, atmospheric cover art. A German searchlight floods the battlefield in harsh yellow light, silhouetting Easy Company's soldiers — rifles and machine guns raised — while an urgent command fills the air: "Shoot out those lights! Or this will really be… The End of Easy Company!" It's a tense, beautifully composed scene that showcases why Robert Kanigher and Joe Kubert's war series kept readers coming back month after month.
