Sgt. Rock #410

A full-length WWII battle story unfolds in this 1986 DC issue, with a cover by Joe Kubert that places a desperate, white-bearded old man front and center — clutching grenade pins and defiantly declaring he'd rather die with his lighthouse than abandon it. Behind him, soldiers scramble under enemy fire as explosions erupt across the scene, the urgency underscored by a shouted warning that the Germans' next burst will kill. With Robert Kanigher writing and Andy Kubert on interior art, "The Light That Would Not Die!" promises the kind of gritty, human-scale wartime drama that made Sgt. Rock one of DC's most enduring war titles.
