L'Escadron des Etoiles #2
"Décembre noir" in L'Escadron des Etoiles #2 (1982) delivers a gripping wartime clash where heroes returning to Pearl Harbor confront the aftermath of battle, only to be drawn into a supernatural siege on a Pacific island. As the more powerful among them succumb to the combined magicks of the Holy Tablet and the Spear of Destiny—held by Tojo and Hitler—their allies must fight to reclaim them from Axis influence. Written by Roy Thomas and illustrated by Rich Buckler, with inks by Jerry Ordway and colors by Carl Gafford, the issue unfolds with urgent stakes, while Dick Giordano’s cover pencils and inks capture the tension of a world on the brink.
In "Décembre noir," Danette Reilly—now wielding fiery powers after a terrifying encounter with an artificial volcano—joins the All-Stars in a desperate bid to thwart Per Degaton’s assault on the West Coast in the wake of Pearl Harbor. With the fate of the nation hanging in the balance, she and the team race against time, only to confront the grim reality that some battles cannot be won, no matter how bravely fought.
In "La défaite du dragon" from L'Escadron des Etoiles #2 (1982), the heroes return to Pearl Harbor to find devastation in their wake, only to be drawn into a desperate mission when a besieged island in the Pacific calls for help. As the team arrives, they face a growing threat not just from the enemy, but from the dark magic of the Holy Tablet and the Spear of Destiny—weapons wielded by Tojo and Hitler—that begin to corrupt even their strongest members. With FDR now declaring all heroes All-Star members for the war’s duration, the remaining allies must push through the influence of these ancient relics to reclaim their comrades and restore control.
