The Korean War is viewed through more of a satirical lens in the pages of Ziff-DavisÕs G.I.JOE series than the
war normally was in comics. The violence is portrayed in an almost slapstick fashion. Sergeants are ogres,
officers are incompetent, women are seductresses and the enemy is easily dispatched caricatures. If it were
not for the enlisted men, who are just regular folks, the whole world would end up speaking Korean or even
Chinese.
The riveting covers of G.I.JOE in this volume were composed by Norman Saunders and Allen Anderson. The
interiors have incredible artwork by Henry Sharp, Mike Sekowsky, Dan DeCarlo, Irv Novick and Jack Sparling,
plus other great talents.
G.I. JOE by Ziff-Davis has an interesting publishing history numerically. The first five issues were numbered
#10-14 and were published between February to October of 1951. Ziff-Davis decided that these issues should
be considered the first five comics of G.I.JOE and relaunched the series with issue #6 in April of 1952.
THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN BOTH HARD COVER AND TRADE PAPERBACK EDITIONS AS WELL AS IN FULL COLOR OR BLACK & WHITE.
