U-47 #9

A twin-engine patrol aircraft sweeps low over a churning, storm-grey sea while a German U-boat cuts through the waves below — the cat-and-mouse tension of the Battle of the Atlantic rendered in moody blue tones on this 2020 ninth volume of U-47. The cover art by Gerardo Balsa captures the predator-and-prey dynamic perfectly, with both the aircraft and submarine rendered in striking mechanical detail. "Wolvenjacht" — Dutch for "Wolf Hunt" — sets the stage for what promises to be a gripping chapter in this WWII naval series from writer Mark Jennison and his collaborators.
