“Two Bullets”

In "Two Bullets," Hank Chapman and Dave Berg tell a quiet yet powerful wartime story of friendship and sacrifice, set against the backdrop of the Somme. Mike, a soldier during the war, forms a bond with Leon and finds love with Lisette—only to face a harrowing choice that echoes through decades. The emotional weight of that moment is finally revealed years later, when Mike shares a secret that changes everything. Joe Maneely’s striking cover captures the tension of the moment, while the interior art by Berg brings the story’s intimate drama to life.

Mike befriends Leon and falls in love with Lisette during the war. When Leon and Mike discover Germans carrying munitions across the Somme they draw lots to see which of them will make a suicidal attack to destroy the bridge. Leon wins the draw and gives his life to accomplish the mission. Decades later, long since married to Lisette, Mike reveals Leon had cheated, intentionally winning the draw.
