War Stories (comics)
War Stories is a comic book series written by Garth Ennis and illustrated by a number of artists.
The first two series, originally under the title War Story and published by Vertigo, consisted of two four-issue mini-series. The two series were printed monthly, the first beginning in November 2001 and the second beginning in January 2003.
A third series, now titled War Stories, published by Avatar Press, commenced in October 2014 and ran for three issues. A fourth series began publication in June 2015. A fifth series commenced in 2016. The first issue of the sixth series was released in May 2017.[needs update]
Each mini-series consisted of three or four stand-alone issues. Most of the stories were set during World War II. One exception was set during the Spanish Civil War and another in the Middle-East in 1973. Each deals with the horror of war experienced by those on the frontline.
In the final days of World War II the commander of a Tiger tank tries to save his men by convincing them to desert so they may surrender to the Americans before they are killed fighting the Soviets.

A young British officer is assigned to the Italian campaign. Once there he finds that their sacrifices are being ignored at home in favour of news about the battle in France and a massive, possibly suicidal, push is planned to attract headlines.
