Mercenari

An Italian mercenary series from Ediperiodici, Mercenari ran for 13 issues in the late 1970s and early 1980s, part of the publisher's wave of gritty, adult-oriented action comics. The series focused on a team of hardened soldiers-for-hire navigating violent, often shadowy conflicts, reflecting the era's fascination with paramilitary adventure and the cynical aftermath of the Vietnam War. While the specific creative team is less widely documented than Ediperiodici's more famous horror titles, Mercenari stands as a representative example of the publisher's muscular, no-frills approach to war comics, offering a raw, unglamorous take on the genre.
