U.S. Air Force Comics #11

This August 1960 Charlton title puts readers right in the thick of aerial combat, with Sam Glanzman's cover depicting a battered U.S. Air Force bomber trailing fire and breaking apart under enemy attack — the "TAKA TAKA" of gunfire and a desperate crewman's cry of "Skipper!!! She's falling apart!!!" capturing the tension vividly. Enemy fighter planes swarm around the stricken aircraft while inset panels hint at a harrowing bail-out sequence below. Inside, Joe Gill, Bill Molno, Vince Alascia, and Jon D'Agostino deliver the featured lead "3,000 Mile Milk Run" alongside the extra story "The Glory War," making this a solid double helping of Cold War-era aviation drama at a dime a copy.
