Over 120 pages of gritty, foul-mouthed, bloody jungle warfare with Maiden America and her band of
freaks and misfits! Black & white with colour covers.
The original Armageddon Patrol (vol. 1) I reviewed here in...2011!
You can order both books via the Kult Creations site:
If you like gritty war stories this ought to please you. The art styles vary but you have to take the rough with the smooth though the stories do hold up well and Short's company is full of fun and surprises as long time CBOers will know.
My favourite in this book has to be Made in America not just because of the lovely art of Caig John but because Octobriana turns up and gets the party started!
As always -recommended.
