Rambo

A gritty action-horror series from Grupo Editorial Vid, Rambo (1988–present) expands John Rambo’s world beyond the films, pitting the iconic soldier against supernatural and military threats across 15 issues. Rooted in the late-’80s boom of licensed comics, the series stands out for its unflinching violence and moody, shadow-drenched art, capturing the era’s fascination with hyper-masculine heroes in extreme situations. While specific creators aren’t widely credited, the series is a cult artifact of Mexican comics, offering a raw, standalone take on the character that contrasts with his American cinematic origins.
