Weird War Tales was a war comic book title published by DC Comics which ran from September 1971 to June 1983, numbering 124 issues.
The title was an anthology series that told war related stories with science fiction, horror, mystery and suspense. Each issue was hosted by Death, usually dressed in a different military uniform each issue.
Recurring characters began to appear late in the series run, notably the Creature Commandos, G. I. Robot, and The War That Time Forgot. Other stories would often feature robot soldiers, ghosts, the undead, and other paranormal characters from different eras of time.
Several fine comics creators worked on the series including writers J. M. DeMatteis, Garth Ennis, Arnold Drake, Jack C. Harris, Robert Kanigher, Steve Gerber, and Sheldon Mayer. Artists such as series editor Joe Kubert, Alfredo Alcala, Reed Crandall, Tony DeZuniga, Mort Drucker, Russ Heath, Alex Nino, Frank Robbins, Frank Thorne, and Alex Toth all made significant contributions.
It was later revived as a limited series under the Vertigo imprint.
