All-out battle action from the pages of the greatest British war comic ever published! Boasts two action-packed war stories, both written by Alan Hebden and drawn by Cam Kennedy (with Mike Western). Fighting Mann is set during the Vietnam War, and follows the exploits of retired US Marine Colonel Walter Mann on his rogue mission in search of his Navy pilot son, whose plane disappeared during a bombing raid over the Vietnamese jungle. War Dog is set during World War II, and centres on a German guard dog condemned to die by its masters but which escapes and embarks on an epic adventure across enemy lines and battlefields. Battle Picture Weekly was a milestone in British comics publishing - the preeminent war comic of the '70s and '80s with a readership in the hundreds of thousands and a groundbreaking approached to storytelling which paved the way for Action, 2000 AD, Warrior and the new wave of UK comics.

If you do the incredible often enough, they'll want you to do the impossible. Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, and Fascist Italy began World War II with aircraft that could devastate enemy warships and merchantmen at will. Britain's Royal Navy squadrons went to war equipped with the Fairey Swordfish. A biplane torpedo bomber in an age of monoplanes, the Swordfish was underpowered and undergunned; an obsolete museum piece, an embarrassment. Its crews fully expected to be shot from the skies. Instead, they flew the ancient "Stringbag" into legend. Writer Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys, War Stories) and artist PJ Holden (Battlefields, World of Tanks: Citadel) present the story of the men who crewed the Swordfish: from their triumphs against the Italian Fleet at Taranto and the mighty German battleship Bismarck in the Atlantic, to the deadly challenge of the Channel Dash in the bleak winter waters of their homeland. They lived as they flew, without a second to lose--and the greatest tributes to their courage would come from the enemy who strove to kill them. Based on the true story of the Royal Navy's Swordfish crews, The Stringbags is an epic tale of young men facing death in an aircraft almost out of time.
