Battle #63 - Steve Ditko art

Battle #63
Battle v1 #63, 1959 - Slogging through a Japanese-occupied jungle, American GIs discover their canine mascot has been smuggled along. The opening panel seems a tad too static, but Steve Ditko's subsequent pages are detailed and purposefully drawn. Shading is minimal, putting greater emphasis on his delicate linework. This issue also includes artwork by Dick Ayers, Don Heck, Joe Maneely, Jim Mooney and Joe Sinnott. Cover by Carl Burgos. This is 1 of 3 Battle issues by Ditko.

Thanks for the info. I'm not as familiar with Burgos' work, but I like the cover's general design.
