Brûlant #17
In "Le duel des 2 sergents," the Hellcats face their most dangerous mission yet as Mlle. Marie leads her squad through a Paris cemetery under cover of night—only to be ambushed by Middle Eastern Assassins. Earlier, they'd barely survived a brutal clash with Nazis closing in, fending off enemy forces before chasing a doomed train that exploded in flames. Now, cornered in the graveyard, they confront the true threat: a fanatical suicide squad imported by the enemy, and a secret weapon that turns their own tactics against them. Written by Robert Kanigher and illustrated with gritty precision by Frank Thorne, this tense wartime thriller builds to a shocking detonation—leaving Lt. Hunter to carry a wounded Marie to safety. Cover by Frank Thorne.
In "Le mystérieux mausolée," Mlle. Marie leads the Hellcats through a war-ravaged Paris cemetery, only to be ambushed by Middle Eastern assassins sent by the Nazis. With the Germans unleashing a secret weapon that destroys passenger trains, the team races to stop the next attack—tracking the threat to a crypt that holds a deadly surprise. As the assassins detonate themselves in a final, desperate stand, Marie is lightly wounded, and Lt. Hunter carries her to safety.
In a quiet cemetery where the past lingers, two sons—born decades apart—find themselves on opposite sides of a war they didn’t choose, each echoing the fate of a father they never knew. The weight of history presses down as the lines between duty, revenge, and memory blur in the silence between shots.
In "Un trou de renard," Corporal Hatton clutches a precious package from home—home movies of his newborn son—determined to find a projector and protect them amid the chaos of war, his quiet resolve a fragile light in the storm.
