The final collection of Joe Colquhoun’s work on the seminal aerial combat story Johnny Red, which also featured in Battle Picture Weekly, is out next month.
This latest edition includes a feature on Stalingrad by Garth Ennis (The Boys, Preacher, War Stories).
Sadly, at present it seems this is the last Titan collection for now from the series, but Egmont are publishing digital editions of the comics, with two volumes already ion sale – so let’s hope artist John Cooper gets his day in the limelight, which he so richly deserves.
These collections are a fantastic tribute to both Tom Tully and Joe Colquhoun, neither still with us.
