V for Vengeance

[Drusilla1S]

My uncle has been telling me about a cartoon strip (Film or Comic? He cannot remember) in which masked Dutch resistance fighters attacked the occupying German forces in World War II. Apparently, as a sign of resistance, they painted a red V on the wall of an attacked building.
Does anybody have any more information about this comic strip?

"V FOR VENGEANCE:

V for Vengeance was the motto of The Deathless Men.

These were underground fighters who had escaped from German prison camps during the Second World War to wage a war of vengeance and terror against top Nazis. A list of names and members of the Gestapo, and Nazi officials of various ranks, finishing with the final three - Goebbels, Goring and Hitler - would be pinned to the victim after they had been killed, with that victim's name crossed off with a thick red line. They were also nameless men with each member given a 'Jack number'. Wearing black hoods to hide their identity, none were taken alive, as each member would bite on a poison capsule to avoid capture. Their leader Colonel Von Reich, second in command to Himmler in the Black Guards, was Jack One."

They have transcripts of some of the strips available on the above page.
