Lady Spitfire #4

The fourth volume of Lady Spitfire drops into the heat and smoke of the North African theater, and Manchu's cover sets the mood immediately — a downed WWII aircraft lies wrecked on the desert sand as a massive column of black smoke and flame erupts behind it, while a lone figure stands amid the wreckage and an enemy plane circles overhead. Sébastien Latour's writing and Maza's art, colored by Pierre Schelle, bring their desert air war story to a compelling chapter in this 2014 Delcourt release. If sun-scorched aerial combat and the grit of the Desert Air Force are your thing, this one's hard to put down.
