Submarine Attack #43

This Charlton war anthology from 1964 packs three naval adventures into one 12-cent package, with the cover by Dick Giordano making a vivid case for each. The dominant scene plunges a diver headlong into a shark-infested lagoon — a massive predator lunging from the left while the diver's thought balloon despairs that trained sharks and an underwater signal mean nothing can save them — while smaller panels show a sailor on a conning tower ordering a crash dive and a submarine stalking a surface vessel marked U-288. Submarine enthusiasts and fans of Cold War-era naval action will find plenty to draw them in here.
