Star Spangled War Stories #72

DC's Star Spangled War Stories #72 (August 1958) puts you right in the thick of naval combat with a cover by Jerry Grandenetti that crackles with urgency — a goggled combat diver in full gear lunges across a submarine hull as a torpedo streaks fiery through the air toward enemy ships on the horizon. The featured story, "Silent Fish," promises the kind of undersea-and-surface warfare that made this title one of DC's most gripping war anthologies of the era, rounded out by additional tales of "flaming action on fighting fronts." Written by Robert Kanigher with art by Russ Heath, the interior work is in equally capable hands for ten cents well spent.
