Unfortunately, the comic is very disappointing despite the awesome attraction of the beautiful cover art. The biggest trouble is that there really aren’t any stories per se, they are more like illustrated historical facts and figures with some very perfunctory drama inserted. Plus outside of the first story, where the art is very nicely composed and effective, the rest of the stories look like rank amateurs. Some action scenes aren’t too bad, but faces and bodies are barely rendered at all. Ultimately, the biggest offender is that the book is just boring as hell. I credit Charlton for the variety of concepts and subjects they tackled, but man if they can’t even get stories about wartime submarines to be interesting and exciting, it’s a bad sign.

Well, different strokes for different folks! The last two stories here are by Sam Glantzman. Sam was a seaman during WWII and stationed in the pacific and therefore all his work on War in the pacific is technically accurate, and he created a lot of comics on the subject. His planes, ships, submarines, uniforms, behavior of the seamen will all be accurate. And excellently drawn. If I'm going to read war comics I would much prefer true to life stories than pure fiction. That I could write myself. Sam's War comics work for Charlton is very scattered. It would be nice to have it all collected in one place.

You have to hand it to Charlton for keeping this specialized category of war comic going for eight years! Most other publishers who had lines of war comics touched on the subject in at least some stories -- and for a time in the early '60s, it almost seemed as though the "frogman" story at DC would become some kind of ongoing feature (but it never actually did -- except in SEA DEVILS, a non-war comic). Previous titles from Avon (FIGHTING UNDERSEA COMMANDOS #1-5) and Hillman (FROGMAN COMICS #1-11) concentrated specifically on the action of divers, but Charlton shifted the focus to submarine warfare in general, and that to me is what (besides an ongoing character, or specific great artwork) distinguishes a war title and makes it interesting to me... by focusing on one specific aspect of a specific war.
