WAR COMICS

49 issues ~ Dec/1950-Sept/1957

One of the Atlas titles that transitioned from pre-code to code

Not as eloquent as Kurtzman's EC war titles but the pre-code

Atlas war titles are the grittiest comics ever produced!

They remind me of Sam Fuller's two 1951 war films

Steel Helmet and Fixed Bayonets...and vice versa
