Our Army at War #87

A paratrooper dragged helplessly across the battlefield by his own tangled chute — directly toward a looming enemy tank — makes for one of the most viscerally tense covers DC put out in 1959. Russ Heath's linework captures every grim detail, from the soldier clutching his weapon as he's pulled across the churned earth to the iron-crossed tank bearing down on him against a fiery red sky. Inside, Robert Kanigher and Joe Kubert deliver a new Easy Company story, "Calling Easy Co.!", alongside additional battle-action tales that made Our Army at War essential reading for war comics fans.
