☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeWings Comics #67 is an anthology featuring stories of fighting aces and sky-fighters. The visible stories include one set in the Brazilian coffee country where a pilot named Enrico rescues a hostess and her passengers after landing safely, and a Suicide Smith story at Hickam Field where military personnel gather at a briefing, followed by action involving a German aircraft and combat with a Korean bell-ringing enemy. Clipper Kirk also appears in the issue's stories of aerial warfare and military adventure.
These guys are still living! This 1946 non-fiction story recounts two remarkable tales of airmen who survived seemingly unsurvivable catastrophes: a pilot whose plane was catapulted into the ocean, only to endure a battering descent through sinking wreckage and churning propellers before rescue; and a tail gunner riding a B-17 with its entire tail assembly blown away into a 10,000-foot death spiral, whose survival defied all explanation. Both accounts capture the incredible luck and resilience of servicemen who walked away from disasters that should have been fatal.
Lieutenant Burke recounts a harrowing tale to Captain Derek West of a reconnaissance mission gone catastrophically wrong—a crash-landing that leaves him in enemy hands and thrust into the middle of a terrifying weapons demonstration. With the aid of a mysterious ghostly presence, Burke finds himself pulled into a desperate sabotage operation against a devastating new weapon, unsure whether he's experiencing reality or the aftermath of a head injury. "Revenge of the Specter-Spy" weaves together wartime espionage, supernatural intrigue, and high-stakes destruction in this nine-page adventure from Wings Comics.
