About the series
A gritty, short-lived British war comic from the mid-1960s, Rocky ran for 24 issues published by Lehning, focusing on the harrowing exploits of its titular soldier protagonist. Best remembered for the visceral, no-holds-barred artwork of Italian artist Dino Battaglia, the series stands out for its unflinching portrayal of combat and psychological strain, a stark contrast to more sanitized war stories of the era. Though its run was brief, Rocky remains a cult touchstone for its mature, European-influenced approach to the genre.
