The Sgt. Rock Archives

Every genre has its super-star. Jack Kirby was the king of super-heroes. Sergio Aragonés is the best humor artist, bar none. But Joe Kubert wins the war comics battle, hands down.

Containing Our Army at War #111-125, these Robert Kanigher and Joe Kubert masterpieces were published from October 1961 to December 1962. The Kanigher-Kubert team captured the essence of war and warriors while at the same time portraying a close-knit fighting unit that lived in these pages. War is hell, and comic-book readers get a taste of combat as seen by Rock and Easy Co. No slouch himself, either, Russ Heath contributes his touch to the series.

“SOS Sergeant Rock” and “Killer Sergeant” are great examples of why this title was one of the best-selling franchises. The full-color reproductions of each of the covers in themselves are worth the price of the book.
