About the series
A single-issue 1945 comic from The World Publishing Company, Up Front collects Bill Mauldin’s classic wartime cartoons from the pages of Stars and Stripes. This volume immortalizes the weary, irreverent infantrymen Willie and Joe, offering a soldier’s-eye view of World War II that resonated deeply with troops and civilians alike. Its blunt, human portrayal of the common GI made it an enduring touchstone of war comics.
