War Picture Library Paperback Collection #1 "Unleash Hell" Collects 12 more of the best War Picture Library War comics ever! Published by Crows Nest in 2007. Large softcover edition with around 780 pages in black and white print.
War Picture Library was the daddy of them all -
the first pocket library and for many fans, the best. The conflict that
engulfed Europe forced ordinary men to give up their safe, happy lives
and fight for freedom against an enemy who had been preparing for war
for years. Debuting in 1958, War Picture Library celebrated the heroic
actions of the Allies as they fought back on land, at sea and in the
air. No theatre of conflict was igred. Written by authors who had
themselves seen combat, from the baking deserts of Africa to the
steaming jungles of the Far East, these complete stories gave youngsters
growing up in the years after the war an answer to the question, What
did you do in the war, daddy? Gathered here is some of the most
striking war art ever produced, reproduced 25 per cent bigger than the
originals so you can feel every bullet hit, every crashing wave and
every nerve shattering explosion. This is military history as you've
never read it before.
