Our Army at War #146

Two soldiers' arms burst through a shattered frozen surface in a desperate struggle — one Allied hand clutching a flaming pistol, the other an enemy fist bearing a swastika armband, while a burning tank looms in the background and submerged faces press against the ice below. Joe Kubert's cover for this September 1964 issue of Our Army at War channels the raw, chaotic intensity of Sgt. Rock's Easy Company with striking visual drama. The story promising a "blazing combat tale no man alive could tell" — "The Fighting Guns of Easy!" — sets up exactly the kind of gritty WWII action that made this series a standout of its era.
