MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1966. Stopped in 1969 after 9 issues.

The scene is a German prisoner of war camp during World War 2. Two parties dominate the actions; the resourceful Allied prisoners and the stupid Nazi guards. The latter group is fooled on a regular basis, but still both parties seem to have found some strange form of mutual understanding.
The series is named after the American Colonel Robert E. Hogan, who, despite his rather restricted position, is the real leader of the camp.

The series is a spinoff from a TV series that ran for 168 episodes from 1965 to 1971.
