Synopsis

Reprint of the landmark debut story "Enemy Ace" from Our Army at War #151 (1965), accompanied by a special two-page pin-up titled "The Hammer of Hell", one of the finest standalone Kubert Enemy Ace images from the era, and a letter column written by Joe Kubert himself explaining the character's history and his own decision to step back from the title.

Collector Notes

The Kubert letter column is a remarkable document: the artist addressing readers directly about the Enemy Ace's future at a moment of genuine uncertainty about the character's continued publication. The two-page pin-up, often overlooked, is among the most striking Enemy Ace images Kubert produced outside of a story context. Essential for serious collectors.
