by Ted Nomura "Firestorm"?In 1940, at the height of the Battle of Britain, Hitler declared that his Luftwaffe would return every bombing of the Fatherland by the Royal Air Force tenfold. Unfortunately for the citizens of Germany, by 1943, the Allies would drop more bombs in one raid than the Germans did in the entire war, the worst of all being the firestorm that made its debut in Hamburg. When Germany went into full war footing three years after the British, women were recruited to take over the men's former jobs so the men could go to war. One of the most critical and dangerous jobs that the women (mostly teen-aged girls) inherited was firefighting. Hamburg would be bombed 180 times during the war. The firestorms in Dresden and Tokyo would actually be worse, but the brave firefighters would fight to the death against the greatest aerial holocaust in history. And the worst was yet to come... in 1946. FC, 20pg Cover price $2.50.

Volume 9 - 1st printing. "Late Roman Infantryman AD 236-565!" Written by Simon MacDowall. Art by Gerry Embleton. Between the 3rd and 6th centuries AD the traditional legions of heavy infantry were whittled away and eventually replaced by a force of various arms and nationalities dominated by cavalry and supported by missile troops. However, in spite of this trend towards cavalry, the pedes remained the backbone of the Roman army until well into the 5th century. This book details a warrior who was very different from the legionary who preceded him; perhaps he was not as well disciplined, but in many ways he was more flexible - ready for deployment to trouble spots, and for fighting both as a skirmisher and a heavy infantryman. Softcover, 64 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $18.95.
