Story and art by Wayne Vansant.

The military tales of the French Legionnaire soldier Battron continue!

December, 1944. In Belgium's Ardennes forest, Hitler's last gamble on the western front plays out as German Panzer units are assaulting the long, ragged line of the U.S. 1st Army. In the village of Aufenscheidt, a rag-tag group of Allied soldiers are persevering against these attacks. Why the Germans want the seemingly unimportant town is a mystery. But every Allied soldier feels the pressure, including Sergeant Battron. Separated on the battlefield from his French Legion group, Battron struggles to support both his friend Esclaviar who wishes to return to his family, while keeping faith that these Americans fighting by his side will hold out against the German onslaught.

But as the Germans gradually crack the outer walls and tighten the noose around the town, the ultimate cost of these assaults will be handed out to each individual.

Story and art by Wayne Vansant.

The action/adventure tales of the French Legionnaire soldier Battron continue!

December, 1944. The onset of winter and retreat of German forces along the western front brings hope of an end to the war among the Allied troops. With a lull in the fighting Sgt. Battron accompanies his friend, Esclaviar, to his home in southern Belgium. Before they arrive at their destination, they caught up in a massive German counter-offensive in the Belgium Ardennes Forest; a campaign that will later become known as the Battle of the Bulge.

At stake is the remote, seemingly insignificant town of Aufenscheidt. The town seems unimportant on the Nazi list of battle objectives. But deep in the town's dark stone bowels lays a treasure more valuable to the Germans than gold!

The team is on Sicily to report on German troop and supply movements to the frontlines. But by seeking the aid of the local underworld, they may have very well put themselves up for sale to the Germans. Softcover, 104 pages, B&W. Cover price $14.99.

Nazi Germany is crumbling, but will even that be enough to douse Hanna's patriotic fervour?

April 1945. The Third Reich is collapsing. In Berlin, surrounded by Soviet troops, a small aircraft lands under enemy fire. Daring pilot Hanna Reitsch escorts an important officer to Hitler's bunker - and is granted an audience with the Führer, from which she emerges visibly upset.

Meanwhile, in a German hospital in the countryside, Max comes to after a long coma. His task remains the same: to kill Hanna. But what new mission has she been given?

Volume 4 - 1st printing. "Amerika Bomber!" Written by Alain Henriet and Yann. Art and cover by Alain Henriet. Translated by Jerome Saincantin. In the last days of World War Two, as the Nazis attempt to launch a last, desperate, and devastating strike, two childhood friends must pick a side. Allied bombers have flattened the secret base that housed the Amerika Bomber project, destroying both the infrastructures and the prototype flying wing that was to annihilate New York City. They did not, however, manage to kill either Anna Reitsch or Max Werner. Much to the latter's horror, though, it turns out there is a second prototype-and the operation is still a go. Meanwhile, Americans and Soviets begin a frantic race to get their hands on the best German rocket and nuclear scientists. Softcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 48 pages, full color. Cover price $12.95.

In the last days of World War Two, Nazi Germany is collapsing, and the noose is tightening around Fürtenstein Castle, rear base of the Amerika Bomber project. Even as the last SS special forces set up the guidance elements for the intercontinental bomber, more and more ground and bases are yielded to the advancing Soviet forces. Anna, once a fanatical admirer of the Führer, is increasingly forced to face the terrible brutality of the regime she's defending. Meanwhile, Werner makes contact with a resistance cell. Softcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 48 pages, full color. Cover price $12.95.

Everything is in place. The radio guidance relays are active, the Silbervogel, the intercontinental bomber, is operational, and Anna is ready to fly it to America-a suicide mission. As for Werner, he seems incapable of fulfilling his mission and killing the beautiful test pilot, in whom he still sees his childhood friend. The arrival of Soviet forces, along with the courage of a handful of prisoners and partisans, will give them both one last chance to do the right thing. Can they seize it?

1st printing. Throughout the summer of 2006, during the Israeli attack on Lebanon, Mazen Kerbaj published drawings, comics, and writing giving a first-hand account of someone creating during a time of intense everyday brutality.
