Inferno: Coastal Command

Inferno: Coastal Command, launched in 2022 by Silvester, is a taut military thriller from writer-artist Antoine Crespin, co-written with Frederik van Wonterghem. Set within a single, densely packed issue, the series drops readers into the high-stakes world of a WWII coastal patrol squadron, where the crew of a PBY Catalina faces relentless danger from both the enemy and the unforgiving sea. Crespin’s detailed, atmospheric art grounds the story in a gritty realism, making this a standout for fans of authentic, character-driven war comics. It matters as a concise, self-contained snapshot of aerial combat that prioritizes tension and technical accuracy over melodrama.
