In "The Diabolical Dr. Dratt," a 1945 Quality Comics standout, a young soldier named Dewey finds himself caught between a vivid dream of glory and the humbling reality of wartime duty. Written, drawn, and inked by Bernard Dibble, this story blends wartime grit with a touch of surreal whimsy, all framed by Jack Cole’s striking cover art.
