JET FIGHTERS "Seeley's Saucer"

Ten-Hut!
We travel from post-apocalyptic America to Korea for the tale of...
...which was published at the same time as last week's World War III!
It's no secret that the Air Force was experimenting with saucer-shaped craft during the Cold War.

The writer of this tale from Jet Fighters #7 (1953) is unknown, but it's penciled by the legendary Alex Toth and inked by Mike Peppe, a versatile artist who worked for practically every company in the field from 1941 to 1972 doing everything from funny animal to horror to romance to superhero to (of course) war.
BTW, for those interested in collecting the title, Jet Fighters ran only three issues (#5-7).
Until next time...
Dis-missed!

JET FIGHTERS "Iron Curtains for Ivan"

Ten-Hut!
We journey to the skies over Korea for the tale of...
...as we look at the Korean War from a "Soviet point of view" as perceived by American writers and artists in Jet Fighters #7 (1953).
The writer is unknown, but the art is by John Celardo, a versatile artist best known for handling both the daily and Sunday Tarzan comic strips for over a decade!

Until next time...
Dis-missed!
