About this title

About the Author:

Pat Mills is a venerated comics writer of such legendary titles as Charley’s War, Marshal Law, and Judge Dredd; and creator of a whole slew of famous stories and characters from the pages of British sci-fi flagship 2000 AD—including Flesh, Invasion, Nemesis the Warlock, The ABC Warriors, and Defoe.

Joe Colquhoun (1926–1987) was a British comics illustrator best known for his artwork in Charley's War. The Los Angeles Times called Charley’s War “darkly spectacular” and Publisher’s Weekly said “Colquhoun's dark brushwork is lovingly detailed and horribly convincing.” Early in his comics career, he worked on Roy of the Rovers, Lion, and Tiger.

Review:

"Timelessly relevant and well researched, this is a comics classic." - PW "Charley's War is one of the finest, most fondly remembered comic strips ever, a deeply radical, horrific reimagining of WWI." - Uncut"
