Big Boss #54
In "Le roi des bêtes de la mer," Never-Fail Nelson finds himself behind enemy lines in Korea, where a seemingly unassailable bridge must be destroyed—without a single bomb dropped. With his Sabre jet downed and pursued by enemy troops, Nelson uses cunning, a stolen truck, and a well-placed charge to turn the tide. Written by Hank Chapman and illustrated by Mort Drucker, this high-stakes mission blends wartime tension with classic pulp flair, all captured in bold, dynamic art. The cover by Bernard Baily delivers the action with a striking, dramatic image.
In war-torn Korea, pilot Never-Fail Nelson is sent to destroy an impenetrable bridge—only to be shot down before he can drop a single bomb. With the bridge already destroyed and his mission a mystery, Nelson evades enemy troops, commandeers a Korean truck, and uses dynamite to bring it down from the ground. The bridge was never meant to be bombed—just outsmarted.
