The dreaded Junkers Ju87 filled with Nazi munitions flew the skies over Europe, as sturdy little Spitfires swarmed around it, cordite fumes from the eight jabbering Brownings filling the air. Scenes like these were played out as American airmen took on the Axis war machine. And these stories were told in the war aviation magazine Sky Raiders. Over the globe, wherever war touched, Sky Raiders took you there. Over the islands of the Pacific, in the hot skies above Africa, and the deadly European theater, Sky Raiders was a magazine of the war. It was conceived after the attack on Pearl Harbor and the first issue hit the magazine racks in the summer of 1942 with a December 1942 cover date. It lasted ten issues, until the Summer 1944 issue. Columbia Publications (aka Double-Action Magazines and Blue Ribbon Magazines) brought readers some amazing air action stories in those ten issues. Sky Raiders returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.
