Star Spangled War Stories #33

Star Spangled War Stories #33 brings the heat of World War II combat right to your fingertips with Jerry Grandenetti's gripping cover — an American GI clutching his submachine gun takes cover behind a wooden post as enemy fire sparks against it, while two opposing soldiers advance from the treeline under a Nazi banner just yards away. The tension crackles off the page, promising the kind of close-quarters battlefield drama advertised by the featured story "Pocket War!" — plus additional tales of action across multiple fighting fronts. A fine example of DC's mid-1950s war anthology storytelling, with Robert Kanigher writing and Ross Andru and Mike Esposito bringing the interior art to life.
