Our Fighting Forces #63

This October 1961 DC war title promises a wild mix of combat and humor, as the cover copy puts it — "bullets and belly-laughs" — when Gunner and Sarge team up with their canine companion for the story "Pooch — Tank Hunter!" Jerry Grandenetti's cover captures the action from a dramatic top-down angle, showing a white dog launching itself at an enemy tank crewman who recoils in the open hatch, a rising-sun emblem visible on the turret. At a dime a copy, this is Silver Age military comics storytelling at its most inventive, with man's best friend taking center stage against enemy armor.
