World War Two. Amid the disruptive chaos of the Battle of the Bulge, a besieged squad of American GIs and a platoon of German infantry do everything in their power to wipe each other out. But as darkness falls, these two groups find they must unite if they are to survive the night. The combined units have now become the prey for an ancient evil and it will take everything they have to survive against the common foe.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

PRAISE FOR COMMON FOE...

"An inspired genre mash-up. When it begins, you think you're reading an excellent, hard-boiled war comic, then the floor drops out from beneath you and you realize that the term "horrors of war" has shadings that most of us have never considered.”

-DWAYNE MCDUFFIE ( producer of Warner Bros. JUSTICE LEAGUE and STATIC SHOCK)

"With Common Foe, Denton and Giffen have taken the war comic and given it the best twist I've seen in a few decades. Highly enjoyable and gripping stuff."

– ED BRUBAKER (Writer of CAPTAIN AMERICA, DAREDEVIL, CRIMINAL, SLEEPER, IRON FIST)

“A war comic with a twist. Visceral and guttural. This team provides a great slow burn tale that eventually explodes in a glorious orgy of vampire violence.”

– JOE CASEY ( Co-creator of Cartoon Network’s BEN 10 )

"Writer Keith Giffen and Shannon (Eric) Denton craft a rat-a-tat narrative..."
