The Submariner would _definitely_ not make things easy for Easy.
Nice depiction!
You know what might make for a "dream team-up?" Nightmare, Morpheus, and Dr. Destiny vs. Dr. Strange, Moon Knight, and Zatanna.*
*Top hat, tuxedo, and fishnets only, though. PLEASE!
Surprisingly, DC was always the more serious one with its war era comics... GI Robot and Dinosaur Island aside, of course. Marvel was always the one where its war stories were definitely sharing the same world as super-heroes and what would one day become Bonds-esque super-spy groups. The likes of Enemy Ace, the Losers, Gravedigger, and Sgt. Rock's Easy Company, meanwhile, could easily be retconned as being on a parallel Earth much, much closer to our own.
@jrp04f: That's definitely true of Sgt. Rock and Captain Savage, but even they were better than some of the hideous war comics Atlas published in the 50's. However, after Atlas was overhauled in 1957 there were three titles, Navy Combat and Marines in Battle (which each lasted about a year) and a third, simply called Battle (which eventually got cancelled after three years to make room for Rawhide Kid), which were occasionally more like knock-offs of EC's Frontline Combat. The last few even had some Kirby stories that weren't too different from the war comics he would do for DC in the mid-70's just before he returned to Marvel.
Indeed, Kubert was a master of suspense covers, and his designs have been copied many times.
Oops, I thought I typed "Sgt. Fury and Captain Savage". I must have had that movie "Fury" on my mind. I thought it was weird that a movie that clearly stole plots and dialogue from Robert Kanigher's DC scripts would be named after Rock's Marvel rival.
