Arthur Fliegenheimer Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Sgt. Fury & his Howling Commandos all had 1928's. The cartoonist was a fan of the Blish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostsoldier Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Ron, I think ol' Joe Kubert, the artist who created Sgt. Rock, might have stretched the details now and then, but I think, for the most part, the Sarge used an M1A1...man, I used to have about 400 of those issues..."Sgt. Rock", "Our Army At War", etc...gave 'em all away...I probably had enough rare issues to trade for a FA Thompson... http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/blink.gif Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 I loved the old comics, especially the war ones from the 50s and 60s. Seems like I remember that Jack Kirby's Thompsons were very strange. They almost looked like ray guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
