Choc #5

A tense wartime scene dominates Joe Kubert's cover for this 1985 Arédit release — a shadowy figure in the foreground grips a weapon while a dramatic beam of light cuts through a darkened street, illuminating figures in the distance and a speech bubble crying out "À trois... abattez le traître!" The atmosphere of espionage and betrayal sets the stage perfectly for Robert Kanigher and Kubert's interior tale, "L'agent sans visage." French readers following Sgt. Rock's adventures had every reason to pick this one up.
