I was always a DC fan. “Sgt. Rock’’, “The Haunted Tank’’.

I liked the art work of Joe Kubert and I thought Russ Heath was the best comic book illustrator ever. Wish someone would do a movie about either of these two WW2 characters.

Nick Fury and the Howling Commandos was the WW II Marvel title. Looking back at it, it was pretty stupid and more than a little offensive, but it was an early attempt at multiculturalism. They had a southerner, an Irishman, an Indian, a black man, an Englishman armed with nothing but an umbrella, and some super tough guy who never runs out of cigars, even at the front, all getting along while fighting evil Nazis, beating them easily every time and never suffering any KIAs or horrific injuries. War is fun. Enlist today.

“The Haunted Tank” would be a non-starter unless they made Jeb Stuart despise and belittle his namesake who actually haunts the tank.
