Atomic War! #2 (1952)

In the icy vastness of the Arctic, Colonel Steve Ranshaw leads a desperate, all-but-suicidal bombing mission against Soviet targets in retaliation for a prior atomic assault on American cities. As his bomber formation battles enemy fighters and mounting damage, the crew’s resolve is tested by personal loss and the grim reality of their mission—especially when the surviving pilot, Rick Sloane, makes a final, heroic attempt to deliver the bomb despite being mortally wounded.

In the frozen isolation of Alaska’s remote military outpost, a weary unit of soldiers pushes through relentless blizzards under the harsh command of Colonel McCobb, who insists their grueling drills are essential for readiness. When a group of enlisted men, driven to desperation, petition for transfer, their defiance takes a dangerous turn—only to be met with a sudden, devastating Soviet air assault that reveals the true stakes of their remote, overlooked post.

In the aftermath of a brutal Soviet push across the Rhine, a small group of U.N. soldiers—led by the resourceful Jeff—survive a desperate defense of a ruined castle, only to discover a hidden tunnel leading behind enemy lines. With time running out, they’re tasked with a perilous mission: infiltrate enemy territory under cover of darkness, sabotage pontoon bridges, and rendezvous with a covert operative who’s already deep in enemy hands.
