“Get the Desert Fox!”

Joe Kubert's cover for Unknown Soldier #229 pulls you straight into the heat of a North African battlefield, where the bandage-masked Soldier clashes hand-to-hand with Nazi troops atop a tank, all loomed over by an enormous, glowing phantom face in the fiery background. The tagline "Get the Desert Fox!" promises a mission aimed at one of history's most formidable commanders, and with writer Bob Haney and artist Dick Ayers handling the interior, the tension behind that cover is well-supported. A sharp 1979 entry in DC's war comics lineup that earns every cent of its forty-cent cover price.
