Spy Fighters #7

From the Atlas Comics era of 1952, this issue of Spy Fighters delivers exactly what its tagline promises — war adventures of spies in actual combat. Russ Heath's cover puts you right in the thick of it: a group of heavily bundled enemy agents charge forward through a smoky, explosion-lit waterfront, while a green-uniformed soldier grapples hand-to-hand with a foe in the foreground, a diagram of a bomb looming ominously in the background. With Federal Agent Clark Mason starring and stories including "The Bullet!" and "Tower of Terror!" alongside the interior tale "Operation Iceberg" — written by Robert Bernstein and drawn by Sol Brodsky — this ten-cent package is a satisfying slice of Cold War tension done right.
