Battle Action Volume 2 is an exciting anthology that revives beloved characters from the classic British comic, Battle Action. Renowned writer Garth Ennis, known for his work on The Boys and Preacher, leads a talented lineup of writers and artists who breathe new life into fan-favorites such as Major Eazy, Johnny Red, and Hellman. This collection features twelve brand-new stories, each illustrated by a range of acclaimed artists, including Chris Burnham and John Higgins.
In this volume, readers will find thrilling narratives where Air Ace Johnny Red and Angel of Death Nina Petrova confront Nazi forces, while the stoic British agent Dredger grapples with the kidnapping of someone he holds dear. Major Eazy is tasked with navigating the treacherous terrain of El Alamein, and the roguish commando team, Rat Pack, faces off against their equally dangerous German counterparts, the Death Squad. Additionally, the classic maritime tale of HMS Nightshade unfolds against the backdrop of a chilling arctic ocean.
The collaboration of established talents and fresh voices makes Battle Action Volume 2 a noteworthy continuation of the series. Alongside Garth Ennis, original Battle Action writer John Wagner and notable contributors like Torunn Gronbekk, Rob Williams, and Dan Abnett craft compelling stories that are complemented by stunning artwork from industry legends. This volume promises an action-packed experience, delivering on the legacy of its predecessors while engaging a new generation of readers.
"Ennis’ new series is a revisionist take on this comingling of two tonally disparate comic properties; one that takes the characters and situations found in Battle, then re-imagines them through the antagonistic, anti-establishment prism of Action ... where lurid full-color mayhem sits alongside the hollowed-out pathos earned over dozens of installments of episodic bloodletting." – The Comics Journal
