☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeWings Comics #51 is an anthology featuring multiple aviation-themed wartime stories. The "Skull Squad" story by Ace Atkins follows Jimmy, Kent, and Sandy as they fly Lancasters over Burma to attack Japanese targets, with the team engaging enemy Mitsubishi aircraft in combat. Another featured story involves Jane Martin, a British intelligence operative who discovers a German spy plot and recovers a document from a British diplomat in Lisbon, leading to aerial combat between British Warbirds and German aircraft. The issue also includes "Toll for a Typhoon" featuring the Skull Squad and Grease Monkey Griffin, along with Captain Wings stories.
When a monsoon grounds his China-based squadron, Captain Wings pushes through impossible weather to complete a critical mission—but what starts as an aerial dogfight evolves into something far more dangerous when he's pulled ashore for a covert operation in enemy territory. Stranded behind Japanese lines with a radio and a target list, Captain Wings must guide an air strike while evading patrols closing in around him, racing against time and geography to survive the night. A wartime tale of grit and improvisation that proves sometimes the real battle isn't in the sky.
