Submarine Attack #54

Charlton's long-running WWII naval anthology puts the spotlight squarely on the enemy in this March 1966 issue, with cover art by Pat Masulli and Rocco Mastroserio showing the Nazi submarine U-289 and an Allied sub numbered 365 on a terrifying collision course at sea. Looming above the action is the steely face of Kapitän Hupke, framed by a swastika flag and the U-289's insignia, while cover copy warns that only someone with Hupke's nerve would hold that kind of course. Joe Gill's script and Sam Glanzman's art — one of comics' most respected voices on naval warfare — bring the story "For the Fatherland" to life inside.
