"Battle Flag of the Foreign Legion" is a striking wartime tale from 2011’s Genius, Isolated: The Life and Art of Alex Toth, showcasing the legendary artist’s masterful storytelling and sharp, dynamic visuals. Written by Robert Kanigher and rendered entirely by Alex Toth—pencils, inks, and letters—this story follows Sgt. LeJac as he leads his men into the desert, only to discover a chilling scene: enemy forces dead, and the French Regimental flag raised over them, a symbol tied to a disgraced American Legionnaire, Douglas, whose past may hold the key to the mystery. The cover, also by Toth, captures the story’s tense, haunting mood with precision and flair.
