Contains 4 stories
Line Officer
6 pp · war
Sgt. Elliot

When Sgt. Elliot's captain falls to a sniper, a young, untested lieutenant arrives to take command—and the seasoned sergeant isn't sure the newcomer has what it takes to lead. As the unit faces enemy fire and impossible odds, Elliot must decide whether this uncertain officer can truly fill the captain's shoes, or if his unorthodox tactics will get them all killed. "Line Officer" tests what it really means to be a leader when the stakes are survival itself.

The Big Birds
6 pp · aviation; war

A fighter pilot's contempt for heavy bomber crews gets tested when his damaged P-47 Thunderbolt needs protection on the way home—and he discovers that dominance in the sky depends on something he'd never admitted before. Written by the team behind Battle Fire, "The Big Birds" is a 1955 aviation war story that trades dogfighting swagger for a harder lesson in interdependence.

Buddha Smiled
6 pp · war
LarsonAh Chu LingLt. Kiley

An American patrol establishes an observation post in an ancient temple, unaware that an enemy patrol is closing in on the same location. When gunfire erupts, Larson and his squad use the massive stone Buddha for cover as the battle intensifies, but Lt. Kiley refuses to abandon their position without a fight. As the idol watches with centuries of calm understanding, the soldiers prepare for a desperate stand against overwhelming odds.

Coward
5 pp · war

When a young captain's patrol walks straight into an ambush, his reputation as a coward seems confirmed—until he learns the men are prisoners and decides their lives matter more than his pride. Racing against time through enemy territory with nothing but a stolen gun and his wits, he executes a desperate rescue that forces everyone to reconsider what real courage looks like. Written and drawn by the creators of Battle Fire, this 1955 war story proves that sometimes the biggest act of bravery comes from those we've already written off as broken.
