Description

Here�s a terrific early and rare Atlas war page form the legendary artist, Russ Heath.

This page�s great dogfight reminds me of some of Russ� later DC work. But --- definitely rarer, as original 50s Atlas (Marvel) pages only occasionally turn-up

Fun Fact: Russ, a veteran, used himself as reference for the role of Major Leo Grabeski in this extremely multi-cultural group of airmen.

Classic Russ! And love that Russ used himself for a character.

Great aerial combat! The quick panel cuts is done to resemble the fast editing of dog fight filmography. Heath intersperses the close ups to give us a good look at all that gear and the human drama to keep the stakes high.

Wonderful air action! Love that the page has jet fighters, bombers, and Russ Heath's self-portrait!
