Showcase v1 #45 featuring Sgt. Rock, 1963 - Why would Sgt. Rock be appear in this tryout series when he's already featured in
Our Army at War? Possibly because this lengthy tale recounts his early days as a private and how he eventually earned his stripes. Russ Heath replicates
Joe Kubert's opening page on the cover and frankly does a better job. That aside, Kubert's story art is comparable to his other war stories from the same period. The layouts are busy but purposefully designed. His line drawings are kinetic in style. On page 24, a sequence of Sgt. Rock in deadly hand to hand combat, stands out as the finest page in the entire book. This story was later reprinted in
DC Special Blue Ribbon Digest #18,
Our Army at War #275 and
Sgt. Rock Special #3. This is 5 of 19
