Some Men Are Born Leaders: The Sarge Vol 2 Is Out Now!

Standard Edition Cover

“Another Masterwork Of Brit Comics History” – comicon.com.

SOME MEN ARE BORN LEADERS – MEN LIKE JIM MASTERS!

Italy, 1943, and British sergeant Jim Masters and his section face increasingly brutal opposition from the German army. Masters has been working overtime as he attempts to keep the war from destroying the good men who make up his section: dealing not only with the enemy’s constant advance, but with incompetent leadership from his commanding officers.

At the same time, Masters must motivate his men and ensure that each individual soldier is prepared for the increasing threat from the enemy – a difficult task as the section now has a lot of inexperienced soldiers amongst its ranks…

From marauding Tiger tanks to suspicious American paratroopers, this volume includes the final work on the strip by its co-creators Gerry-Finley Day and Mike Western!

Includes:

  • Introduction from modern comics master Garth Ennis (Battle Action, The Boys)
  • All Sarge strips originally printed in Battle between 1st April 1978 – 16th December 1978.
  • The Sarge strip originally printed in the Battle Action Special (2022).

‘If there was a ever a crown for the finest character created for British Comics in the shadowy black and white newsprint world of the 1960s, it would be proudly worn by the Spider.’ – Paul Grist

The King of Crooks returns!

The Spider is a fabulous intellectual adventurer who straddles both sides of the law and uses a whole host of super equipment to stay one step ahead of his enemies.

When small-time hoodlum Steve Gurko unwittingly releases a magical entity from captivity, he quickly gains the kind of power he could only ever dream about. Embarking on a crime spree, Gurko soon finds himself on the Spider’s radar. But the astounding crime fighter is about to face his toughest opponent to date because the Crime Genie won’t be enslaved by a fool like Gurko for long. Once unleashed, this mystical menace possesses enough might to enslave the human race forever!
