Jackie Johnson

Jackie Johnson is a DC war comics soldier who fights alongside Sgt. Rock and Easy Company, the legendary World War II unit. A recurring member of that storied ensemble, he stands among combatants like Bulldozer and Wildman in the mud and chaos of the European theater.

Stepping onto the Silver Age battlefield in 1967's Our Army at War #178, Jackie Johnson is a DC war comics figure brought to life by the creative team of Hank Chapman and Jack Abel. What makes this character genuinely remarkable is the staying power — a presence that has stretched across nearly six decades, from the Johnson-era Silver Age all the way to 2025, sharing pages with some of DC's most beloved wartime icons, including Sgt. Rock, Bulldozer, Wildman, and the rest of that storied ensemble. With appearances in America at War: The Best of DC War Comics and even Crisis on Infinite Earths, Jackie Johnson has earned a place that reaches well beyond the trenches of a single title, and a collector-significant key issue signals that the comics world has taken notice. Fifteen catalog appearances may feel intimate, but in the company Jackie Johnson keeps, every one of them counts.
