Popular Post buttock Posted February 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2021 The boards have a GA section and SA section, but the 1950s stuff kinda gets stuck in between. The GA war thread is too nonspecific and the SA war thread tends to be late DC centric. But as much as any other genre, the 1950s were a war comic era. Without rambling too much, the war books of the 1950s are completely different than those of the WWII era, and that, IMO, justifies a thread on its own merit. So without further ado, let's get it going boys and girls. I'll start with one of my favorite books, just because it's so over the top. If you've ever read this title it's absolutely ridiculous. Just over the top fantastical machismo. But issue 3 really takes the cake with the "Die, you commie rats! Die!" quote. @comick1 turned me on to this book way back in the mid 1990s and it took me over 15 years to find a high-grade copy. lbcolefan, JTLarsen, adamstrange and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJD Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I have full runs of Two Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat. Some of my favourites have WW2 covers but in keeping with this thread, here are some 1950s Korean War covers. 1950's war comics and PopKulture 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I also like some of the later Wings and other FH titles when they get into the jet age. (Australian editions here.) adamstrange, Get Marwood & I and lbcolefan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
