Our Army at War #35

Mid-1950s DC war comics don't come much more visceral than this June 1955 issue, where a helmeted G.I. — dog tags swinging, rifle blazing — hurls himself through a shattering wall and shouts "Hit the floor!" in a cover by Jerry Grandenetti that crackles with split-second urgency. Inside, Robert Kanigher and Irv Novick deliver "Frontline Tackle!" alongside a full lineup of battle-action stories. It's a ten-cent package of front-line tension that captures exactly what made Our Army at War such a compelling read in its era.
