sergente Ward Mulligan

Born in the pages of Sergio Bonelli Editore's Nick Raider #1 back in 1988, sergente Ward Mulligan has been a fixture of Italian crime comics for over three decades — a testament to the enduring appeal of the gritty, procedural world Claudio Nizzi and Gustavo Trigo built from the Copper Age onward. Mulligan keeps sharp company throughout his long run, sharing the page with the likes of Nick Raider himself, capitano Philip Vance, and Jimmy Garnet across both Nick Raider and its successor series Nick Raider le nuove indagini. With a career spanning all the way to 2022 and at least one collector-recognized key issue to his name, this sergeant is a reliable presence in one of Bonelli's most atmospheric crime universes — the kind of supporting character who quietly anchors a series and rewards the dedicated reader who pays attention.
