Kabul "the Turk" Hasan
Kabul "the Turk" Hasan is a Bronze Age creation who first stepped onto the page in the 1976 Battle Picture Weekly Annual, launched by IPC into the gritty, war-comics tradition that made Battle Picture Weekly one of the most beloved British anthology titles of its era. Over a publishing history that stretches a remarkable 48 years, Hasan has kept vivid company with the likes of Johnny 'Red' Redburn, Matthew Dancer, and Ian "Scarface" Rogan — a roster of hard-edged characters that speaks to the tough, action-packed world he inhabits. With a key collector's issue among his appearances and a presence spread across Battle Picture Weekly and Valiant and Battle Action, he's a rewarding discovery for anyone digging into the rich seam of British comics history that too many readers outside the UK have yet to uncover.
