Charley's War #6

A single red poppy glows against a stark black field beneath a haunting black-and-white photograph of soldiers tending to a fallen comrade in the trenches — it's a cover that quietly commands attention before you've read a single panel. This sixth Titan collection of Pat Mills and Joe Colquhoun's celebrated WWI series, subtitled Underground and Over the Top, carries that same emotional weight through Trucie Henderson's understated cover design. If you've been following Charley's War, this 2009 volume is an essential continuation; if you're just discovering it, that poppy is a fitting invitation.
