Battle Action volume 2 cover

A continuation of the hit 2022 Battle Action graphic novel, Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys) is joined by new all-star writers and artists including Torunn Gronbekk (Star Wars) and Chris Burnham (Batman).

A bumper collection of new tales of revitalised characters from the classic British comic, Battle Action. Garth Ennis (The Boys, Preacher) returns and brings along new writers and artists to bring new life to fan-favourites such as Major Eazy, Johnny Red, and Hellman, drawn by a host of all-star artists from Chris Brunham (Batman, Doom Patrol) to John Higgins (Watchmen).BATTLE ACTION RETURNS WITH A COLLECTION OF TWELVE NEW STORIES!

Air Ace Johnny Red and Angel of Death Nina Petrova face off against the Nazi invaders, lethal British agent Dredger deals with the abduction of the only person dear to his stony heart, and the louche Major Eazy must lead his men through the Devil’s Garden of El Alamein. There’s action aplenty with roguish British commandoes Rat Pack, along with Death Squad, their equally deadly German counterparts. And the hellish arctic ocean is the setting for HMS Nightshade, the classic tale of war at sea.

Writer Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys) is joined by an incredible roster of top-tier talent, with stories by original Battle Action writer John Wagner (Judge Dredd, Robo-Hunter), Torunn Gronbekk (Thor, Red Sonja), Rob Williams (Suicide Squad, Petrol Head) and Dan Abnett (Guardians of the Galaxy, Lawless), and featuring art by industry greats like Keith Burns (Out of the Blue), Chris Burnham (Batman, Doom Patrol), Henry Flint (Hawk The Slayer) and John Higgins (Watchmen, Dreadnoughts). There’s blazing Battle Action on every page!

"Ennis’ new series is a revisionist take on this comingling of two tonally disparate comic properties; one that takes the characters and situations found in Battle, then re-imagines them through the antagonistic, anti-establishment prism of Action ... where lurid full-color mayhem sits alongside the hollowed-out pathos earned over dozens of installments of episodic bloodletting." – The Comics Journal
"A fabulous comic ... There is so much passion here" - Down The Tubes
