Kurt Busiek and Carlos Pacheco return to their fantasy-meets-WWI world with this 2022 Image Comics series opener, subtitled Behind Enemy Lines. The cover, penciled by Pacheco and inked by Fonteriz, plunges us straight into aerial combat: two soldiers mounted on winged creatures tumble through a sky blazing with red bursts, one wielding a crossbow-like weapon while the other clutches a glowing orb and grapples his foe mid-fall. It's a vivid reminder of why Arrowsmith's blend of military grit and magical wonder feels unlike anything else in comics.
