Volume 43 - 1st printing. "P-40 Warhawk Aces of the MT!" Written by Carl Molesworth. Art by Jim Laurier. Thrown into action following the Torch landings of late 1942, the ‘green' American pilots flying the obsolescent P-40F suffered cruelly at the hands of seasoned German fighter pilots flying superior machines. Those that survived learnt quickly, and a handful of Warhawk pilots succeeded in making ace by the time the Axis forces surrendered in North Africa. The action then shifted to Sicily and Italy, and the P-40 remained in service until mid-1944. This book charts the careers of the 23 men who succeeded in making ace during that time, despite the advent of much better P-47 and P-51 fighters. Softcover, 96 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $22.95.

Volume 42- 1st printing. "Redcoat Officer!" Written by Stuart Reid. Art by Gerry Embleton. The commissioned officer ranks in the British Army from 1740-1815 were almost entirely composed of the affluent and educated - the sons of the landed gentry, the wealthy, and other professional people. This title looks at the enlistment, training, daily life and combat experiences of the typical British officer in the crucial periods of the North American conflicts, the American Revolution, and the Napoleonic Wars. It compliments the author's previous treatments in Warrior 19 British Redcoat 1740-93 and Warrior 20 British Redcoat (2) 1793-1815, which deal exclusively with the common infantryman, and balances these discussions through a look at the 'fellows in silk stockings'. Particular emphasis is placed on the experiences and activities in North America in the late 18th century. Softcover, 64 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $18.95.

The mission is on. Wallace and Kittering are being sent to Afghanistan to look for the information hidden by David MacMillan before the Taliban arrested him as a suspected spy. Left behind, Tara finds herself with a little too much time on her hands and no real outlet for channeling her energy. Sure, she still has appointments with the staff psychologist to discuss any trauma following her run-in with the Russian Mafia, but that doesn't really scratch the itch. Instead, Tara settles for a night on the town and the distractions it has to offer. The latest in the ongoing espionage saga by noted author Greg Rucka (Detective Comics) features slick artwork by the team of Brian Hurtt (Captain America #50) and Christine Norrie (Hopeless Savages), with a gorgeous painted cover by Dr. Mid-Nite artist John K. Snyder III. MATURE READERS b&w, 32pgs. Cover price $2.95.
