Submarine Attack #21

Charlton's Submarine Attack #21 brings Sam Glanzman's naval warfare artwork front and center, with a dramatic cover depicting surface ships ablaze on a smoke-filled horizon while a determined sailor struggles through churning waves — and a sleek submarine glides menacingly in the lower panel. The featured story, "The Skipper Calls the Shots," written by Joe Gill, promises the kind of tense undersea command drama that made this series a reliable ten-cent thrill in 1960. It's a solid wartime adventure package, complete with a TWA/Disneyland contest ad that perfectly captures the era's optimistic spirit.
