Blazing Combat v1 #1, 1966 - Frank Frazetta's emotionally charged painting sets the tone for this war-themed magazine series. Warren Publishing, better known its horror titles Creepy, Eerie and Vampirella, makes it first and only foray into this genre. Although several fine artists contribute to this first issue, Angelo Torres stands out for his sobering depiction of the aftermath of the Civil War. His inks on character faces and figures is crisp and contemporary. Alex Toth's illustrations for the single page "Combat Quiz" generally meets expectations. This issue also includes artwork by George Evans, Reed Crandall, Gray Morrow, Joe Orlando and John Severin. This is 1 of 4 Blazing Combat issues by Frazetta and 1 of 4 Blazing Combat issues by Toth. /// key 1st issue- - - - - - - - - -
