Our Mission: helping you read comic books in order... and more comics!

This year marks the 80th anniversary of the Armistice of the Second World War. Considered the largest and deadliest war in history, involving more than 30 countries, WWII shaped the world we live in today. Causing immense human suffering and physical destruction on an unprecedented scale, its conclusion resulted in a reshaping of the world's political, economic, and social systems, laying the groundwork for international relations for the remainder of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first century.

When it comes to our duty of memory, comics offer a unique way to revisit World War II. From historical accounts to personal experiences, they depict the war’s events and figures, providing different perspectives on a conflict that shaped the modern world.

Today we invite you to continue exploring and discovering stories from World War II with our selection of comics, ranging from family stories transformed by war to the bloodiest battles and everything in between, exploring both intimate tales and large-scale events, capturing the trauma, sacrifice, and lasting impact of this defining moment in history.
