“Kill the General!”

A frail, defiant old man sits in a wheelchair clutching a pistol while armed enemy soldiers descend a grand staircase behind him, demanding to know the Unknown Soldier's whereabouts — or else. Joe Kubert's cover art captures the tension of that ultimatum with remarkable economy, every wrinkle on the old man's face a testament to quiet courage under threat. This 52-page 1972 issue, featuring the story "Kill the General!" with Bob Haney writing and Dan Spiegle on interior art, packs serious wartime drama into a single unforgettable image.
