“Gobbledegook”

In "Gobbledegook," the Unknown Soldier finds himself in a high-stakes race against time when a hijacked plane carrying an H-bomb circles New York City. The only way to bring it down safely is if a foreign leader's broadcast includes a hidden codeword—something the Soldier must impersonate to deliver, but he doesn’t know the word. Written by James Owsley and brought to life with sharp, atmospheric art by Phil Gascoine—inked by Arne Starr and colored by Carl Gafford—this tense, grounded thriller pushes the Soldier to his limits, relying on wit and nerve rather than firepower. The cover by Phil Gascoine captures the dread of the moment, a silent scream against the skyline.
