Owner's Description

Combat Kelly #12 is referenced in Geoffrey Wagner’s “Parade of Pleasure” (POP) with a black and white illustration of the cover and a color illustration of a page from one of the interior stories.

One of Wagner’s topics in the POP is the distorted ways that American military forces and their communist enemies are presented in war comics. He uses Combat Kelly #12 as one example. Wagner’s caption under the black and white illustration of the cover of Combat Kelly #12 reads “The American infantryman in Korea, as seen by Combat Kelly.” On the adjoining page he has a full-page color illustration from an interior story contained in Combat Kelly #12.
