☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Triumph of Corporal Jones!", a 1955 War Comics standout, Gene Colan’s art brings to life a gritty, character-driven moment from the trenches of World War I, where rivalries between American soldiers Haley and Wilson flare even amid battle. As the French struggle to understand the Americans’ bickering, a defiant patrol ventures into no man’s land to plant a sign declaring their claim—only for the chaos of their differences to become a surprising testament to their resolve. Russ Heath’s cover captures the tension with sharp, dynamic lines, setting the stage for a story where pride and purpose collide.
In a wartime moment of tension and humor, two bickering American soldiers, Haley and Wilson, find themselves at odds even as they face the dangers of no man's land. When Wilson joins a patrol to plant a defiant sign, Haley insists the idea was his — and soon, both men prove their courage in a desperate push to relieve their pinned-down comrades. The French, baffled by their rivalry, come to see that these Americans may argue fiercely, but they’ll fight with unmatched determination. The sign they plant reads: "This is no longer no man's land; it's Yankee Land."
