About this Collection

This collection gathers the complete run of Battler Britton stories from the classic British war comic War Picture Library, originally published in the 1950s and 1960s. It follows the daring RAF pilot through a series of aerial combat adventures during World War II, showcasing the gritty, action-packed artwork and storytelling that defined the post-war comic boom. Rebellion's 2021 edition brings these vintage tales back into print for modern readers.

"Rockets of Revenge" delivers a gripping wartime thriller from the legendary Hugo Pratt, whose distinctive artistry brings raw intensity to the tale of Polish resistance fighters hiding a captured German V2 rocket at war’s end. Battler Britton is thrust into a high-stakes mission, flying a scientist to Poland to uncover the secrets of the missile, all rendered in Pratt’s masterful pencils and inks—both for the story and the striking cover.
