Joe Rock has escaped the mercenary soldiers holding Easy Company captive, but to free his men he must eliminate the payday that these unkillable men are after and prove himself worthy of the title Sergeant Rock! Also: A Battle of Gettysburg reenactment goes horribly wrong when the souls of the dead rise up for revenge!
The one disappointing aspect of Men of War #6 is that this is the last readers will see of Rock and his men for the foreseeable future. Ivan Brandon is departing the series now, and after two more issues the book will be canceled entirely. The worst part is that this issue seems to set up plenty more conflict for Rock. Unless he returns in the pages of G.I. Combat, that setup will be for naught. And unless Brandon himself returns to pen the further adventure of Sgt. Rock, the question is whether it matters if the character returns or not. Read Full Review
With the departure of Ivan Brandon, "Men of War" will stagger on for two additional issues, but this feels like the true conclusion of the series. The confrontation of Rock with the face of endless war calls back to the first issue perfectly. "Men of War" was one of the best titles of the 'New 52' and it will be missed. Read Full Review
