Star Spangled War Stories #56

This 1957 DC anthology delivers exactly the kind of pulse-pounding tension the title promises — the cover by Joe Kubert drops us right into a desperate hand-to-hand struggle, with an Allied sergeant grappling against two enemy soldiers (marked with Nazi insignia) over control of a rifle, all while a cannon blazes fire and smoke overhead. The composition pulls you straight into the melee, Kubert's draftsmanship making the chaos feel immediate and physical. Inside, Bob Haney and Jack Abel bring you "The Walking Sub!" alongside further stories of action across multiple fighting fronts — solid anthology value for a dime.
