replies: text: More to the point, Battler Britton is not "by" Garth Ennis. The character first appeared in Thriller Picture Library right back in the late 50's. Garth Ennis is simply the latest writer to work on a Battler Britton story, albiet a dumbed-down, America-friendly one.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.135.137.5 (talk) 19:42, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Isn't that strange, exactly a year later I come back here to while away an idle hour and see I made the comment I was planning to make XD. Anyway, apart from the fact that the original (real) Battler Britton was not by Garth Ennis, Commando Comics are not a "similar" publication. In fact, they're exactly the sort of gung-ho adventuring Charley's War was intended to counteract. That said, earlier issues of the older War Picture Library were pretty bleak, almost Charley's War style. A story that IS similar to Charley's War (it's even British and in black and white, so yanks can easily stick it into a category) was Eagles Over the Western Front, about the RFC through the war. It does have some heroic scenes, and also plenty of comedy, but then again a lot of the main characters die, and British and American characters are sometimes more 'evil' than the 'bad' Germans. 81.131.170.141 (talk) 20:11, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
