Jour J #21

A striking aerial duel dominates the cover of this 2015 Delcourt release, with a sleek French tricolor-marked fighter painted in intricate grey camouflage patterns banking sharply in the foreground while a burning enemy aircraft trails black smoke behind it. The story, "Le crépuscule des damnés," promises a gripping alternate-history scenario set in 1943, where French fascist aviation fights its last battle during an Allied landing. Cover art by Manchu and Fred Blanchard, with the writing team of Duval, Pécau, and Blanchard alongside artist Maza, makes this twenty-first installment of Jour J a visually arresting chapter in the series.
