Frontline Combat #6 - Wally Wood art

Frontline Combat #6

Frontline Combat v1 #6, 1952 - The War of 1812 was a particularly bloody era of American history. Wally Wood does his best to illustrate the severity and savagery. His opening panel illustrates the deadly aftermath of a frontier battle. A wounded Indian narrates the rise and fall of Tecumseh, the great chief who led a coalition of tribes against the white man. Wood composes his pages with great attention to detail, even in the smallest panels. In the last scene, the artist cleverly uses creative typography and the reader's own imagination to finish off the tale. This story was later reprinted in Frontline Combat v2 #6. Other artists in this golden age comic include Jack Davis and John Severin. Cover by Harvey Kurtzman. This is 5 of 13 Frontline Combat issues by Wood. /// Wood gallery
