MILITARY COMICS Volume 6

Three more 64-page classics from the midst of World War II. Superlative Blackhawk lead-off stories by Crandall, plus lots of backup features like Death Patrol, Destroyer 171, The Sniper (carrying the fight to Hitler himself, in Europe), Private Dogtag, PT Boat and Secret War News (true stories of Naval Flying Aces) -- everyone was on the warfront battling Nazis and Japan. Additional creators make up a who's who of the better artists of the Golden Age: Alex Kotzky, who went on to fame with Apartment 3G and other syndicated strips; William Woolfolk, Quality's best writer; Gill Fox; John Cassone (artist of the fabled Black Angel for Air Fighters Comics); Fred Guardineer (veteran DC artist who was doing Action Comics covers in 1938 and 1939, and worked for Crime Does Not Pay, Durango Kid, you name it, he was there); Vernon Henkel (Manhunter, Sky Wolf, Blonde Phantom); Art Gates; and finally Al Stahl, a favorite of Craig Yoe's and subject of several reprints of his stylish humor work.
