Frontlinies #9

A lone soldier stands his ground in a war-torn field, rifle in hand and a red beret marking his rank, while a burning German half-track looms dramatically behind him — it's a cover that immediately signals the grim intensity of armored warfare on the Western Front. This ninth volume in the Frontlinies series, subtitled "De Leclerc-divisie," brings together the writing talents of Jean-Pierre Pécau and Dieter Van Tilburgh with Brada's interior art, all wrapped in a striking cover rendered by Pierre Loyvet. Published in 2023 by Daedalus, this Dutch-language album looks to be a gripping entry in a series that takes WWII history seriously.
