DC Horror Presents: Sgt. Rock vs. The Army of the Dead #1 is on sale September 27, will have a Duffel Bag Gore variant cover drawn by Frank Quitely too gruesome to even show you. Charlie Adlard is back drawing zombies for the first time since he wrapped up his run on The Walking Dead in a 1:25 variant. Issue #1 will also have a variant cover drawn by Francesco Francavilla, a 1:50 variant drawn by Chris Mooneyham, a 1:100 variant by Pia Guerra, and main cover by Gary Frank in an all-star artists line-up. 

Bruce Campbell and Eduardo Risso team for DC Horror Presents: Sgt. Rock Vs. The Army of the Dead

This fall, DC gets groovy as they team with icon Bruce Campbell for DC Horror Presents: Sgt. Rock vs. The Army of the Dead. Joining Campbell for the six issue miniseries is artist Eduardo Risso.

The story begins in Berlin, 1944. The Nazis are flanked on all fronts by the combined Allied forces, and defeat seems inevitable. In a last-ditch effort to turn the tide of the war, Hitler and his team of evil scientists create a serum that resurrects their dead soldiers, creating an army of the dead even stronger than they were in life.

Sgt. Rock, hero of the European Theatre, and his Easy Company find themselves dispatched into enemy territory to face off against the strangest, most horrific enemies they’ve encountered yet: Nazi Zombies.

And if you’re not afraid of gore, Issue #1, on sale September 27, will have a Duffel Bag Gore variant cover drawn by Frank Quitely too gruesome to even show you. Charlie Adlard is back drawing zombies for the first time since he wrapped up his run on The Walking Dead in a 1:25 variant. Issue #1 will also have a variant cover drawn by Francesco Francavilla, a 1:50 variant drawn by Chris Mooneyham, a 1:100 variant by Pia Guerra, and main cover by Gary Frank in an all-star artists line-up. 

Sgt. Rock first debuted in DC’s comics in 1959, in Our Army at War #83. Sgt. Franklin John Rock and his Easy Company became a mainstay of DC’s popular war comics. Created by writer Robert Kanigher and artist Joe Kubert, Sgt. Rock was soldier of almost preternatural ability and grit, battling Nazis across Europe and Northern Africa during World War II. Now, he’s back, in a new, terrifying setting in this action-horror mash-up, updating a classic DC hero for new fans!

Things get weirder, grosser, and more biblical as Edgar and Elk follow Blorp’s trail of carnage across the city. But is this visitor from another dimension truly as dangerous as it seems, or is there something innocent about it? Perhaps even something divine? Edgar’s time in seminary couldn’t possibly prepare him for what’s in store!
