Sgt. Rock #401

Joe Kubert's cover for this 1985 DC issue pulls you straight into the chaos, as a squad of WWII soldiers scrambles in every direction — some diving for cover, others stumbling backward — before a massive, roiling column of fire and smoke that tears across the battlefield. The tagline "Into the Middle of the War Comes a 'Visitation'" sets an ominous, almost otherworldly tone against the raw, gritty action Sgt. Rock fans know well. With Robert Kanigher writing and Adrian Gonzales on interior art, issue #401 looks to deliver the hard-hitting war storytelling that has always defined this series.
