Last, we Return to Barrow, where the setting sun ignites a new winter of terror for the beleaguered townspeople. Brian Kitka is desperate to find out what happened to his brother last winter, and becoming the new sheriff may get him the answers he needs. But some things are best left in the dark, and Brian will need more than just help from a few old friends if anyone’s going to be alive come sunrise.

Battling overwhelming odds, Cobus and his men train and fight alongside a small contingent of soldiers against a murderous band of 15,000 rebel fighters bent on genocide. But, no amount of soldiering has prepared the men for the vicious arena of butchery, treachery, and mounting political pressure they experience while trying to do what is just. What difference does winning make if they lose their humanity in the process? Enemy Ace Archives Vol. 1 (reprints "Enemy Ace" stories from Showcase #57, 58, Star-Spangled War Stories #138–142) First, in the original 30 Days of Night, dive deep into the nightmare world of Barrow, Alaska, where month-long winter darkness calls a siren song to a band of bloodthirsty vampires. The town’s only hope of survival lies in the hands of Stella and Eben, the local husband-and-wife sheriff team.In the post-World War II era, comic books devoted solely to war stories began appearing and gained popularity in the United States and Canada through the 1950s, the 1960s, and 1970s, i.e. covering the time periods of the Korean War and the Vietnam War. The titles tended to concentrate on US military events, generally in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. Most publishers produced anthologies; industry giant DC Comics' war comics included such long-running titles as All-American Men of War, Our Army at War, Our Fighting Forces, and Star Spangled War Stories. Another prolific publisher of war comics was Charlton Comics, which produced a wide variety of titles beginning in the 1950s, such as Battlefield Action, Fightin' Army, and Fightin' Marines. Quality also began publishing G.I. Combat during this era. Marvel Comics also produced war titles, notably Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos.

Miguel Ruiz is a Spanish veteran exiled in France who was a member of “La Nueve” (“The Nine”), a company of men that went straight from fighting for their homeland in the Spanish Civil War to battles spanning the globe in WWII.

This first-of-its-kind graphic history strips away the fantastical aspects of this mysterious location and establishes the actual, significant history made there. By the late 1980s, a great number of venerable war titles (most of which were either anthologies or else World War II-themed titles) from the late 1950s and 1960s " Silver Age of Comic Books" died out. War comics series that ended long runs in the 1980s, following publication of over 100 issues, include: But for many, the comic’s success relies on a lot more than this, and, if anything, their quality should attract a great deal more critical acclaim than they do. One admirer of the genre is Robert Fleming, Curator of Fine and Decorative Art at the Army museum, who put the ‘Draw your weapons’ exhibition together: Nazi Zombies. A desperate Third Reich unleashes its most fearsome weapon: Der Totenkorpse! A fiendish division of flesh-eating soldiers that cannot die! Born of horrible human experiments, baptized in the fires of Hell, drenched in the blood of the innocent, the Death Corps marches to consume the living. If the Nazis cannot rule the world, they will eat it alive.

Or maybe it’s the comfort you get in knowing that, if nowhere else in life, at least here a good bloke (and occasionally the good bloke is a ‘Jerry’) will always triumph over a bad ‘un - even if the personal cost has been high. But some things can’t be left behind — some things don’t want to be left behind. By Joe Hill and Jason Ciaramella, the writing team that brought you the Eisner-award nominated one-shot, The Cape, with art by Vic Malhotra. Thumbprint will turn your guts inside out. Our collection of best military themed comic books and graphic novels for this year has a great mix of old and new titles and includes exciting books such as Born and DMZ.Marvel Masterworks Sgt.

Riches, Adam (2009). When the Comics Went to War. Mainstream Publishing. p. 256. ISBN 1-84596-554-X.Cold War. Acclaimed creator John Byrne (Next Men) releases his latest creation, MI-6 agent Michael Swann. In Swann’s opening adventure, “The Damoclese Contract,” the secret agent is called on to stop a defecting British scientist from granting the Soviets complete nuclear dominion over the free world… promising ample doses of intrigue and espionage. New titles were still appearing, however – notable among these being Marvel's the 'Nam, which debuted in 1987 and was based during the first year on writer Doug Murray's actual Vietnam experiences (through the eyes of fictional character Ed Marks). Murray was surprised that his proposal for a Vietnam-war themed comic was accepted during this period: "I never expected anything to come of it because war books were already pretty much dead at that point in 1985." [4] Another notable war comic focused on Vietnam was Don Lomax's Vietnam Journal, published by Apple Comics from 1987 to 1991. I’ve put up an information panel about that,” explains Robert. “Some of it may seem politically incorrect, but that is how soldiers talked to each other, and it would be wrong to shy away from that. Area 51. Though nearly everyone has heard of it, almost no one has known anything about it . . . until now. Located in the remote Nevada desert near the dry bed of Groom Lake, Area 51 is the most famous military installation in the world that doesn’t “officially” exist.
