Propaganda abounds from the very first story, published in War Comics #1 in September 1950: Peril in Korea, a primer explaining why the USA joined the conflict. Other highlights include Colan's The Chips are Down and Victory, Heath's Alone and No Survivors, Maneely's Stormy Weather, Henkel's Total Destruction, and Berg's The Infantry's War.
Originally a trial spun off from the publisher's Men's Adventure publications, in the nine years to follow, Atlas went on to produce 533 comic book issues with war content, across 34 different titles. War Comics is where it all began -- unseen in decades, scanned from the original books, restored and packaged as one large, beautiful hardcover volume.
