When the Wind Blows (1982)
Published by Hamish Hamilton
“I wanted to see if a nuclear attack does happen, what do people actually do? […] The authorities were playing it down, pretending it’s like the Second World War, when it jolly well wasn’t. I wanted people to know what’s involved, then they could make up their minds.”
—Raymond Briggs, interviewed in The Comics Journal in 2003
