Synopsis
From renowned comics writer Pat Mills and legendary artist Joe Colquhoun comes a truly classic piece of graphic storytelling: thrilling, horrifying and deeply moving.
In 1916, Charley Bourne lies about his age to fight in France. But thoughts of glory and patriotism are swept aside by the horror of life and death in the trenches of the First World War. In this second volume, we follow the continuing trials of Charley during the bloody and disastrous Battle of the Somme.
Charley’s War also features an appreciation by comics writer Garth Ennis (War Stories), a ‘director’s commentary’ by Pat Mills, and a fascinating article on the cultural history of World War One.

About the Author
Pat Mills is a venerated comics writer of such legendary titles as Charley’s War, Marshal Law, and Judge Dredd; and creator of a whole slew of famous stories and characters from the pages of British sci-fi flagship 2000 AD—including Flesh, Invasion, Nemesis the Warlock, The ABC Warriors, and Defoe.
Joe Colquhoun (1926–1987) was a British comics illustrator best known for his artwork in Charley's War. The Los Angeles Times called Charley’s War “darkly spectacular” and Publisher’s Weekly said “Colquhoun's dark brushwork is lovingly detailed and horribly convincing.” Early in his comics career, he worked on Roy of the Rovers, Lion, and Tiger.
