Iron Corporal

A single-issue war comic from Avalon Communications, Iron Corporal (1998) is a tight, self-contained story written by Willi Franz and illustrated by Sam Glanzman. Drawing on Glanzman’s celebrated realism and Franz’s focused scripting, the issue presents a gritty, character-driven look at the life of a hardened non-commissioned officer. It stands as a modest but earnest entry in the war comics tradition, notable for Glanzman’s authentic, detailed artwork.
