War is hell -- and no one knows that better than Sgt. Rock and the fighting men of Easy Company. These classic tales of World War II take readers deep behind enemy lines, where Easy Company never has it easy -- because battle can break out at any moment.
These hard-hitting tales star the man they call Rock and the colorful members of his platoon, including Wildman, Ice Cream Soldier, Bulldozer and more, as they face the enemy in one hopeless situation after another.
In this new, high-quality archive edition, Sgt. Rock battles his opposite number: a German sergeant, protects a young refugee, clashes with other Army sergeants, attempts to rescue a captured soldier and more.
About the Author
One of the most prolific and inventive comics writers of all time, Robert Kanigher wrote comics of every type. He is best known for his war comics starring SGT. ROCK and ENEMY ACE, and also wrote long runs on WONDER WOMAN, METAL MEN and many others. Born in 1926, Joe Kubert began his comics career at the age of eleven as an apprentice in Harry "A" Chesler's comic book production house. He has worked in the industry ever since, and in his more than sixty years in the field he has produced countless memorable stories for countless characters, including DC's Hawkman, Tarzan, Enemy Ace, Batman and the Flash. Kubert also edited, wrote and illustrated the DC title SGT. ROCK, which he contributed to for thirty years. In 1996 he produced Fax From Sarajevo, a gripping graphic narrative that earned him critical acclaim. In 1976 he founded the first and only accredited school devoted solely to the art of cartoon graphics: The Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in Dover, New Jersey, which has since produced many of today's leading cartoonists.
