Foxhole #5 - Jack Kirby cover

Jack Kirby

Foxhole v1 #5, 1955 - Fiery pinks and reds seem to suggest the heat of battle on this intensely hued cover. Jack Kirby employs a single figure as the focal point of his layout. Cocked for a grenade throw, the soldier's arms and legs extend out to fill available space. His rifle's bayonet points menacingly at the masthead. Lesser know for his work on war comics, Kirby proves himself a master of the genre. Other artists in this golden age war comic include Jo Albistur. This is 5 of 6 Foxhole issues by Kirby.
