Hah! That's the only one I still have. It's in abysmal condition- but I have it.

Here's the first four George Evans covers for 'Aces High'...I always find it quite difficult to tell his work apart from Joe Kubert's...I wonder who was influenced by whom?

I wish I had the original issue's. I photographed these from the hard cover compilation, re-issued in the late 90's.

Actually, I was always a 'Johnny Cloud' fan myself!

A case in point: I think this is Evans again...Or is it Kubert?

Of course, telling 'em apart is made easier by Kubert always signing his covers...Love this one!

Oh man!I remember those Wierd War Tales comic books from my dad's old comic collection!

'Weird War Tales' WW1 related covers were few 'n far between...Not totally sure, but I think this might be the only other one:
