Superheroes in the Korean War?
darkmark (RIP):
PLASTIC MAN #38 also has a Korean War story.

Also, in 1954, after the cease-fire agreement had been signed, the Human Torch was "In Korea" in HUMAN TORCH #38, and Captain America ended up there in MEN'S ADVENTURES #28.

Wow, thanks! The Plastic Man story was interesting. I'll keep my eye out for the Timely comics. I remember finding one site that had them online to read.

In Doom Patrol 89 Elasti-Girl comes to the aid of a Korean War veteran who has been traumatized by his battle experiences.

One of the early Marvel Sgt. Fury annuals, published in the mid-60s, features a story in which the Howling Commandos advance from WWII to Korea. Nick Fury wins a battlefield commission and it sets the stage for the SHIELD stories, set in the present-day 1960s.
I'm not sure if you would consider the Howling Commandos superheroes, but they're definitely heroes.
