Star Spangled War Stories #156

From DC's Star Spangled War Stories comes issue #156 (May 1971), featuring the Unknown Soldier in a story titled "Assassination." Joe Kubert's cover — rendered in his characteristically gritty, expressive style — shows a soldier in uniform surrounded by a wall of different faces, while a flesh-toned mask is dramatically pulled away to reveal yet another face beneath, accompanied by the ominous declaration: "This will be the most dangerous role I've ever played!" With Enemy Ace and the Hammer of Hell also promised inside, this 15-cent issue packs a compelling lineup of wartime drama into one pulse-quickening package.
