Sgt. Rock #358

Joe Kubert's cover for this 1981 DC issue hits hard with an urgent, ground-level image: a wounded Sgt. Rock crawls across the foreground, reaching out desperately as a group of armed children charge toward a German tank amid smoke and fire. His shouted plea — "Come back, you kids…this ain't no game! It's WAR!" — sets the tone for a story that puts the innocence of youth squarely in the crosshairs of the battlefield. Inside, Jan Duursema brings "The Young Soldiers" to life, making this a memorable entry in Rock's long run at DC.
