Larger Image	A-842	Grenade Burst Notes: In his career as a war comic writer, Chapman wrote two types of stories - agonizingly brutal examinations of the horrors of war (mostly earlier stories) and mindnumbingly gung-ho adventure tales (mostly later work). This one is halfway between, a gung-ho story about Combat Kelly, where the American hero 'realisticly' calls his red opponants monkeys and other nonflattering names. - Ger Apeldoorn.	5 pg art	Hank Chapman script signed Bill LaCava pencils and inks attributed Contributors: Frank Wilmot: Creator Credit Ger Apeldoorn: Creator Credit Jim Vadeboncoeur Jr.: Creator Credit

Larger Image	A-729	The Killer Notes: One of Chapman's brutal examinations of war. In his best stories, Chapman used innovative comic book techniques, such as using real headlines of clever essaylike examinations of a subject. Here,the whol story is told from the point of view of an enemy sniper gun. Every panel is circular and diveded in four pieces by the crosshaires of the gun. The panels are placed on a black blackground. The sniper kills three soldiers, before he is found out and shot himself - a hole appearing in the 'glass' of his visor. - Ger Apeldoorn.	3 pg art	Hank Chapman script signed Robert Q.
