A Tank Knows No Mercy!
Notes: This story has some unusual graphic themes for Kirby and Ditko.
The most prevailing visual theme: War is a muddy, dirty business. Page 2 panel 3: the roadway of muddy tractor treads. Page 3 panel 1: the mud covered feet of the American soldier bursts through the panel border. Page 5 panel 1: as the American soldier runs toward us, one mud covered foot pierces the panel proscenium. - the stikman. |

The Thick of Battle!
Notes: Prevailing theme: War is a bitter cold business.
I imagine Kirby is remembering his own experience with frostbite as a WWII serviceman. Page 1 panel 1: The snow encrusted feet of the Korean soldiers march toward us one of them bursts through the panel border. Page 3 panel 2: The snow encrusted feet of the American soldier loom toward us as he hugs the cold ground. Page 4 panel 5: The “loudmouth” has “a wide stance”. -the stikman. |

Face to Face with the Enemy!
Notes: A propaganda tale with a somewhat interesting storytelling device featuring parallel stories of the Korean War:
On the left side of the pages the American point of view: Reluctant, soft, distracted by their lives of ease. On the right side of the pages the Korean point of view: Eager, confident, focused, anticipating glories to come. On page four a American soldier named “Stan” and a Korean soldier named “Kim” are dispatched by their respective units. On page five the tables are suddenly turned. The “valiant (American) fighting man battles...to protect the freedom and ease he is heir to...”, as “the gods of the Koreans “look down without interest”. -the stikman. |
