Major Eazy, art by Carlos Ezquerra |
Major Eazy epitomised the best aspects of Battle Picture Weekly. He was cool and unconventional. Created by Alan Hebden and Carlos Ezquerra as a laconic, irreverent, merciless Nazi-killing, sharp-shooting British officer who had learnt his trade with the Long Range Desert Group in North Africa. Battle picks up the story in Italy when Eazy takes command of a company of British soldiers and the strip follows their journey as they slog through the hard terrain of the Italian campaign.
