Our Army at War #290
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Super-Soldiers," a group of Army privates learns to blend into the jungle using foliage—until one eager recruit turns heads with a helmet that’s anything but discreet. Packed with humor and visual flair, this 1976 issue features Sergio Aragonés handling writing, art, and inking, all with a signature style that’s both clever and delightfully absurd. The cover, by Joe Kubert, captures the moment with his trademark precision and flair.
In "Camouflaged Helmet," a group of Army privates try to blend into the jungle under their Sergeant First Class’s orders, but one young private takes the task far too literally—turning his helmet into a garish, flower-filled spectacle that stands out in the most unexpected way. The story’s quiet humor comes from the contrast between military discipline and one soldier’s bold, colorful rebellion.
