“I Owe You One”

This 1986 installment of DC's long-running war series leads with a quietly devastating cover by Joe Kubert: amid a field of fallen soldiers scattered beneath towering cross and Star of David grave markers, a Catholic chaplain and a Jewish chaplain stand together — one clutching a Bible, the other a prayer book — bearing witness to the human cost of battle. The image carries real emotional weight without a single shot being fired, which says everything about the kind of storytelling Sgt. Rock was known for. Inside, Robert Kanigher writes "I Owe You One" with art from Andy Kubert, inked and lettered by Kubert as well, with colors by Tatjana Wood — a strong creative lineup for any fan of classic war comics.
