Description: IPC. 1977, First Issue. Soft cover. Ill.: CARLOS EZQUERRA, JOE COLQUHOUN, JOHN COOPER, MIKE WESTERN & Others. Comic, Here is a scarce collection of 44 issues for 1977 of this collectable comic. There are 3 damaged issues, being 15/1, 10/9, 8/10, and 22/10. The rest are V.G. "Battle Picture Weekly", also later known as "Battle Action Force", "Battle", and "Battle with Storm Force", was published from 8/3/1975 until 23/1/1988. It then merged with "Eagle". On October 23rd 1975, included here, it became "Battle Picture Weekly and Valiant", until 1/10/1977. On 12/11/77 it merged with "Action", and then became "Battle Action" until 1/8/1981 when it reverted to "Battle" until 1983. It was initially brought about to challenge the success of "Warlord". The freelance writer Pat Mills together with John Wagner collaborated with Gerry Finlay-Day to produce a rival comic that could compete. A pleasing collection here of the 1977 issues, in very good condition considering the cheap paper used! A great opportunity to buy a little piece of comic history! Many more issues available for other years. Very Good.
