Star Spangled War Stories #80

This April 1959 DC war anthology puts aerial combat front and center, with a determined gunner manning a blazing turret aboard a U.S. aircraft while an enemy tank takes aim from the shoreline below — a tense, split-second standoff captured with real energy by Jerry Grandenetti's cover art. Featuring "Top Gunner!" written by Robert Kanigher, the issue also promises additional "stories of flaming action on fighting fronts," making it a well-packed ten-cent package for fans of gritty wartime drama.
