Submarine Attack #11

This 1958 Charlton war title puts readers right in the deep end — the cover by Charles Nicholas and Vince Alascia depicts a bold frogman in a yellow diving suit, knife in hand, maneuvering through murky depths while a submarine looms in the water above him. The tension of that underwater scene, with bubbles trailing and a large vessel lurking to the right, captures exactly the kind of taut naval adventure the series delivers. With Joe Gill writing and Bill Molno on interior art, Submarine Attack #11 is a fine example of late-'50s military comics at their most gripping.
