A few months ago we wrote about the comic book World of Tanks: Roll Out, Wargaming.net’s attempt to expand its World of Tanks franchise to comic books. The first issue of the new series is out today both in physical and digital copies, and it looks good. World of Tanks: Roll Out is the work of the collaboration between two-time Eisner Award-winning writer Garth Ennis and the artist Carlos Ezquierra, who is behind Judge Dredd. If you’re a comics fan, you’ll know that these are not just any creators but pretty big names in the industry, which hopefully means the end-product will be equally great.

The story is set in post D-Day Normandy when British armor was facing the German behemoths in an effort to push inland. The focus is on the people commanding those tanks, which sounds like a promising premise. The series will consist of 6 issues that will come out in monthly intervals. So, if you enjoy your World of Tanks: Blitz (Free) and comics, go pick this one up today.
