Our Army at War #20

A naval officer desperately clings to the hull of the sinking U.S.S. Lion as it tilts violently into churning seas, its gun turret angled helplessly skyward while an enemy aircraft streaks through a smoke-filled orange sky overhead — Irv Novick's cover for this 1954 DC entry captures the chaos of combat at its most visceral. Inside, Robert Kanigher and Jerry Grandenetti deliver a full slate of war stories including "Abandon Ship!," "Flying Crackerbox," "TNT Mail," and "The Blue and the Grey." A solid piece of mid-fifties DC war comics storytelling across both its striking cover and its varied anthology lineup.
