After nearly a quarter-century and 204 issues, comicdom said goodbye to Star Spangled War Stories. However, writer Bob Haney and artist Dick Ayres had no intention of terminating the Unknown Soldier, the series' star of more than fifty issues, despite the title of the issues lead story - "The Unknown Soldier Must Die." The man whom no one knows, but is known by everyone, thwarted Nazi attempts to brainwash ally Chat Noir into killing him, allowing DC to rename the following series after the Unknown Soldier, starting with issue #205 in May 1977.
