“Island of Armored Giants!”

In "Island of Armored Giants!", a Normandy village lies submerged after a dam is bombed, its fate tied to a secret signal sent by Marie to England. A reluctant frogman is dropped in to investigate, only to find himself navigating flooded streets and evading Nazi frogmen while uncovering a hidden submarine tunnel beneath the ruins. Written by Bob Haney and illustrated by Irv Novick, with a striking cover by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito, this wartime thriller blends suspense and underwater danger in a story where every shadow hides a threat—and a surprise.

Above a Normandy town, the dam is bombed and the village drowned. Why? Marie signals England, who airdrop a frogman who dislikes a "powder puff" mission. But Von Ekt found a flipper and guesses their mission. Frogman and Marie swim through the drowned village and find Nazi submarines and a tunnel to the coast! Dodging Nazi frogmen, swimming through houses, escaping the clock tower, Marie plants charges on the subs. They detonate in the tunnel, ending the submarine threat. Later she freshens up with a "powder poof", her secret weapon!
