hello /k/, i'm bored. so here's a storytime about WAR, and the WEAPONS that men fought them with.(jannies. seeing as this is a WAR COMIC and WAR primarily concerns WEAPONS, this is on topic. no more so off topic than for example the fan/k/sia theads)anyways, once upon a time well over 70 years ago. EC Comics released Two-Fisted Tales. which was grittier than most of the other war comics from the time. far from being heroic, dashing military propaganda like most of the other war comics of the 50s and 40s often were. Harvey Kurtzman hoped to show how fucked up war and combat were.if people like this i may post another issue.

so it was the 1970s. and after roughly twenty years of absence thanks to the Comics Code Authority. proper horror comics were allowed to be published under the CCA. over at Marvel they did Chamber Of Darkness. Tower Of Shadows, etc.DC launched the likes of The Witching Hour, and re-launched their House Of Secrets and House Of Mystery titles DC did some genre mixing and out of that we got various titles that combined horror with another genre. in this case. Weird War Tales was a horror/war comic. it was rather successful. running for 12 years and over 120 issues.
