ATOMIC WAR! "Arctic Assault"

Ten-Hut!

We return to a potential near future (the 1960s as seen in 1952)...

 ...where the Cold War became hot when Russia launched a sneak attack on the US and NATO with nuclear weapons!

Could Draft-dodger and current National Security Advisor candidate John Bolton have been inspired by this never-reprinted tale of aerial atomic action in the Arctic from Ace's Atomic War #4 (1953)?

Bolton would've been 5 or older when he read this issue at home or at the local barber shop, or in his friends' collections (presuming he had any friends)

The writer is unknown, but the illustrator was Ken Rice who rendered the bulk of the stories in both Atomic War! and World War III!

See you soon...

We hope you've enjoyed this week of daily posts.

Regrettably, it's not something we can do as an ongoing practice...unless we get more hits on the blog!

As it is, we had to take this blog out of a weekly rotation because too few people were visiting it.

If traffic picks up, we can restore it to weekly posting, then, if the increased audience warrants it, make it daily!

It's up to you.

Tell your friends and/or other military aficionados about us.

See you soon...

ATOMIC WAR! "Ice-Box Invasion"

Ten-Hut!

We return to a potential near future (the 1960s as seen in 1952)...

...and a locale where it seems the heat of atomic bombs will never reach!

Personally, I'd be pretty nervous about using "atomic hand grenades" at close quarters like that, especially if I was planning to have children if I survived...
While the scripter for this tale from Atomic War! #2 (1952) is unknown, the art is by Jim McLaughlin.
Tomorrow, we return to World War III.

Until Tomorrow...

Tomorrow, we switch to World War III, the other Ace Comics future-war series which was set in a seperate universe despite the similar concept!
