The Blazing Combat Collection #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 2018 Fantagraphics collection gathers the complete run of the controversial 1960s war comic Blazing Combat, originally published by Warren Publishing. Featuring stories by Archie Goodwin, Joe Orlando, and other top talents, the series was praised for its gritty, anti-war realism but faced censorship and distribution issues due to its unflinching depictions of conflict. The volume includes all four issues, plus historical essays and artwork.
"Viet-Cong!" is a stark, grounded wartime tale from the 2018 Fantagraphics collection The Blazing Combat Collection, blending historical reflection with personal duty. Written by Archie Goodwin and Wally Wood, with art by Wallace Wood and Ralph Reese, and inks by Reese, Adkins, and Wood, the story centers on an officer of the JV-44 Commando Fighter Group confronting the legacy of the ME-262’s unrealized potential—its revolutionary design stifled by Hitler’s vision, now echoing in his own order to destroy his own plane. The cover, by Eugene Colan, captures the tension of that final moment.
