U-47 #1

The cover of this 2019 Dutch-language release draws you straight beneath the waves, where a dramatically rendered German U-boat cuts through dark, pressure-heavy waters as explosions bloom in the deep behind it — a tense, beautifully realized underwater scene by Gerardo Balsa. U-47 #1: De stier van Scapa Flow sets the stage for what promises to be a gripping wartime submarine saga from writer Mark Jennison and artist Balsa, whose moody, detail-rich linework gives the vessel an almost living presence. If you're drawn to WWII naval drama told with visual confidence, this opening chapter looks like a compelling place to dive in.
