Brûlant #22
In "Peloton d'exécution," a lone sergeant haunted by survival guilt wanders a frozen battlefield, questioning his purpose with a quiet, haunting resolve. As he moves through the snow, he takes desperate, decisive action—disabling enemy nests, destroying fuel tanks, downing a plane—before guiding lost green recruits to safety at the cost of his own life. The story, written by Howard Liss and illustrated by Jack Abel with inks by Abel, features a powerful cover by Joe Kubert, capturing the grim intensity of a man who finds meaning in sacrifice.

Un sergent se sent condamné après avoir survécu seul à un obus d'artillerie qui anéantit son escouade. Il parcourt la neige en se demandant: "Quelque chose d'autre que je suis censé faire avant qu'ils ne ramassent mes étiquettes de chien?" Il erre et sauve des GI en faisant sauter un nid de machine, en tirant des pétroliers en liberté, en abattant un avion. Finalement, il trouve les recrues vertes perdues et les envoie en sécurité pendant qu'il retient les nazis. Ils trouvent son cadavre. "Regardez le sourire sur son visage!"
