Der Boche

Set in the final years of World War I, Der Boche (1991–1996) is a five-issue historical war comic from the German publisher comicplus+. Scripted primarily by Daniel Bardet and Eckart Sackmann, with art by brothers Éric and Jean-Marc Stalner, the series offers a nuanced, humanizing look at the German soldiers on the front lines, challenging the one-dimensional villain archetype often found in wartime storytelling. Its focused, intimate scope and European creative team make it a distinctive, thoughtful entry in the war comics genre.
