Combat Casey #10 VG- Another ‘Go see the dentist’ violent cover by Heath. Extremely violent (flamethrowers, burning bodies, etc.) interior art by Robert Q. Sale. Two interior pages have 2.5” tears but book is complete. Rusted staples. More of a reading copy, so priced accordingly at $7.00

Battlefront #23 VG Violent Heath cover, with Maneely interior art. Can’t be sure, but that looks like a River City code at the top, in grease pencil. Light creasing/mavel chipping on right hand of front cover. Offwhite pages. $14.00

Thanks Scrooge!

 

Here are some more!

 

 

Men’s Adventures #19 FN- A nice copy, with a great war cover by Jerry Robinson. There is a thin, light moisture stain at the right cover edge which appears on many of the interior pages. Book has a general bend at the upper right (doesn’t break color) that could esily be pressed. Light name in pencil on cover (hardly visible.) Offwhite pages. Great book that you don’t see that often. $25.00

Navy Action #2 VG I know… it’s just another maddeningly beautiful Heath cover. Clean, flat copy with general wear, but this copy is showing some tanning and discolor on the edges of the cover interiors (common on these early Atlas books). Pencil initial on cover. Offwhite pages. $20.00 SOLD!

War #11 VG+/FN- I don’t have to say much about this book – it’s one of the most notorious war covers of all time. It’s a Heath classic, as the flamethrowers go to work. I’ve owned several copies of this book over the years, and this is the nicest. There is a light dust shadow on the back, and a small chip/tear dent at the middle of the spine on the back. As well, there is a 1” spine split from the top. But don’t let that deter you. This is a total keeper, the only copy of this book you will ever need. Offwhite pages. $130.00 SOLD!

Men in Action #3 FN++ Great Heath cover, and a wonderful Heath air force story inside. Clean, flat copy. Might even grade higher, except for two long light vertical creases on the back cover (making this a good pressing candidate). Cream to offwhite pages. $30.00

Man, not my area of collecting, but some sweeeet covers!

 

Thanks! These don't come up that often. Atlas war books are one of the most underrated areas of comics. They are just so vicious!!

 

 

Not only that but great prices too. If I didn't have them already, I'd have :takeit: the two Navy Actions as quickly as I could.

Battle #30 VG- One of the greatest Heath covers of all time, the classic ‘Pow! Take That, Commie!’ cover. Nice flat copy, but there is some general wear on the cover that takes it down in grade. An affordable way to get a very tough book. $12.00
