Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos

Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Dick Ayers brought their signature war-comics energy to this Australian reprint series, which collected classic Sgt. Fury stories from the 1960s. Published by Yaffa/Page from 1978 onward, the ten-issue run follows the original tales of the tough, cigar-chomping sergeant and his multi-ethnic squad of G.I. commandos during World War II. It matters as a key piece of Marvel's international publishing history, making these foundational, Kirby-drawn adventures available to a new generation of readers down under.
