• Men of War #11 - 1978

Experience the grit, courage, and intensity of battlefield storytelling with Men of War #11 - 1978, a standout issue from DC Comics’ gripping war anthology series that defined the genre during the Bronze Age of comics. First published in the late 1970s, Men of War offered readers action-packed, character-driven tales that explored the heroism, trauma, and moral complexity of soldiers on the front lines. Issue #11 delivers multiple stories that spotlight both new faces and recurring characters in high-stakes combat scenarios.

This issue continues the saga of Gravedigger, one of DC’s most significant wartime characters. Gravedigger—aka Captain Ulysses Hazard—is a Black World War II hero whose strength, intelligence, and sheer determination made him a compelling and groundbreaking figure in military fiction. His stories broke new ground in representation, and Men of War #11 continues his powerful narrative with striking visuals and sharp storytelling.

Also featured in this issue are additional short stories that take readers across different theatres of war, from jungle ambushes to trench warfare. Each segment is illustrated in the classic DC Bronze Age style: rich, expressive line work, detailed military gear, and authentic action sequences that reflect the harsh realities of war while honouring the courage of those who fought. The narrative tone balances gritty realism with dramatic pacing, making this a compelling read for fans of war comics and historical fiction.

As a 1978 original, this issue holds strong collector appeal for fans of DC Comics, military comic enthusiasts, and anyone building a comprehensive Bronze Age library. It also stands out as a unique departure from the superhero genre, offering a grounded, human perspective through characters who fight without powers but with tremendous resolve.

To protect its condition, this comic comes housed in a premium, acid-free sleeve with a firm backing board to prevent damage. It will be securely packaged in a sturdy, protective book mailer, specially designed to safeguard collectibles during postage. Orders are dispatched promptly, and each comic is handled with the care and attention serious collectors expect.

Whether you’re completing a run of Men of War, collecting every Gravedigger appearance, or simply exploring DC’s impressive wartime storytelling, Men of War #11 is an essential, historically significant issue that belongs in every Bronze Age collection.
