“24 Hours to Die!”

War meets mythology in this wild 1969 DC offering, with a Joe Kubert cover that throws Lt. Hunter's Hellcats headlong into something far stranger than the typical battlefield. Soldiers in combat gear scramble through stone corridors as a monstrous Minotaur looms above them in flames, while a red-haired civilian is pulled urgently along — the speech bubble demanding "Run, Hellcats! This is the ONLY way out of the Minotaur's Maze!" A large, menacing gunner figure lurks on the right side of the cover, and a snarling wildcat prowls the masthead, making this one of the more imaginatively staged entries in DC's war comics lineup of the era.

The Hellcats are ordered to rendezvous with the leader of the underground movement on Nazi-occupied Crete. However, they are forced to take pills that will kill them in 24 hours if they don't return to receive the antidote, in case they are captured. In Crete, they learn that they have to rescue Zorba, the underground leader, who is imprisoned in a maze by the Nazi Colonel Minotaur.
