fajrdrakoWhen I was aged about nine or ten, my favourite comic books was Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos, subtitled, The War Comic for People Who Hate War Comics. That would be me.
I found someone else who was into the comic with this blog: 30 Reasons to Love Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos. Do I remember the stories well enough to remember the details she cites? No, except maybe for the tough and clever Nick Fury getting his clothes ripped off all the time.

Was it really bad?
