Opération Overlord #5

The cover of this fifth volume in Glénat's Opération Overlord series captures the brutal intensity of the Normandy campaign, splitting its composition between a dramatic close-up of determined Allied soldiers advancing under fire and a sweeping lower panel depicting the chaos of the Pointe du Hoc assault — explosions, gunfire, and embattled clifftop positions rendered in vivid detail by Bruno Falba, Davide Fabbri, and Christian Dalla Vecchia. The title La Pointe du Hoc immediately signals one of the most daring operations of the 1944 D-Day landings, promising a visceral, ground-level look at the Rangers' legendary cliff assault. It's the kind of war comics storytelling that respects both the history and the humanity behind it.
