Oorlogen & draken #1

The first volume of Oorlogen & Draken opens with a breathtaking premise: a massive blue dragon soaring through a WWII-era sky thick with Spitfires and other warplanes, its scaled body dwarfing the aircraft that swirl around it in a golden, smoke-filled atmosphere. The collision of historical aerial warfare and fantasy mythology is immediately compelling, with the RAF roundels on the planes grounding the chaos in recognizable history even as the dragon's glowing eyes suggest something altogether more ancient and dangerous. By Jarry, Vax, and Powell, this Dutch-language edition from Daedalus — subtitled De Slag om Engeland — promises a fresh and imaginative reimagining of one of history's most dramatic air campaigns.
