Crock : You'll Pay For This . . . All Of You!

 

By Parker, Rechin and Wilder


Daily strips from the comic strip Crock. Copyrights from the late 1970s. Authors only listed by their last names but Parker is Brant Parker, Rechin is Bill Rechin and Wilder is Don Wilder. Parker worked on the strip from 1975 to 1976. Bill Rechin from 1975 to 2011. And Don Wilder from 1976 to 2011. The strip ended in 2012 but still appears in reruns. Source: Wikipedia. 


A mildly funny comic strip, it tells about the lives of the men of a Foreign Legion post in some nameless desert country and their encounters with the locals, including bandits and rebels and lovely maidens (some the maidens are not so lovely and some are probably not so maiden). The Commandant is the vicious Vermin Crock, who delights in the suffering of his men and whose cruelty is one of the main features of the strip.


A slice of daily life for the men of Crock's command:

Crock : There's No Escape from the Legion!

By Bill Rechin and Don Wilder

Crock comic strips, copyrighted 1981, 1982, 1983.

Led by their cruel commandant, Crock, the soldiers of the Legion do their best (which isn't all that great) to follow orders and defeat the enemy.
Fortunately, the enemy isn't all that smart either.

One of my favorite comic strips, but both Bill Rechin and Don Wilder are gone and new strips are no longer being created.

Crock Marches On

By Bill Rechin and Don Wilder

Crock comic strips, copyright 1984 and 1985. Crock is the cruel, selfish commandant of the Foreign Legion outpost in the blazing desert of some unnamed country. Although the locals are after their blood, the soldiers are more in danger from their own leader, Crock. He cares not if the soldiers are starving, thirsty, wounded or underpaid. All he cares about is himself.




Crock : Are Those Your Good Pants?

By Bill Rechin and Don Wilder

Crock comic strips, copyright 1978, 1979, 1981.

Life is hard for the soldiers of the Foreign Legion, stuck as they in the cruel desert and ruled by a harsh and selfish commander. But as written and drawn by the authors, it may be harsh and cruel but it is definitely hilarious.
