Combat Kelly #12 Marvel Comics (Atlas) 1953 War Chinese Battle Hank Chapman

Combat Kelly and Cookie Novak attack an enemy four-man patrol to take some prisoners. In the middle of the fight the two American soldiers are shocked when their Chinese opponents suddenly surrender. They take them back to Major Thorn for interrogation and they all learn that the Chinese are planning an attack of their base in order to free Yalu River Rosie. Major Thorn decides that Rosie is to be transported to a rear base and assigns Combat and Cookie to do the job.

They take Rosie on the route to her new prison by jeep. Along the way they are stopped by what appear to be American soldiers, but turn out to be Chinese troops in disguise. When the two Americans realize that this was the plan the whole time and try to fight back but are knocked out. Before the Chinese soldiers can execute Combat and Cookie, Rosie stops them having come up with a more gruesome torture. when the two soldiers revive, she has their wrists tied to by a long rope to the bumper of the jeep, intending to drag the two men to their death.

Quick thinking, Combat and Cookie trip up Rosie and her men with the same rope that would have meant their death and escape in the jeep. With their hands tied up they cannot work the steering wheel. Rosie shoots out their tires and they steer out of control off a cliff and into a river. Swimming to safety, they two return to base with their hands still tied and without Rosie, as she easily escaped in the confusion.
