D-Day is approaching! Quite nice story, actually. Captain Sam Sawyer is kidnapped, because he knows the date of the Operation Overlord. Howlers to the rescue! From much of the story and dialogue it is obvious that Roy knew military history, which is nice. Although I am always peeved when I see Stukas flying in the British airspace in 1944. C'mon, those were ancient planes by then! No way would they be sent anywhere, even just to deliver a message to the Howlers.

Some other funny bits as well, Captain Sawyer looks very fresh for a guy who has been interrogated extensively by the SS. (Or was it Gestapo? Looks like Roy wasn't sure...)

Art by Ayers and Tartaglione, very detailed planes. But in this issue I was also struck by the way faces were handled. Very detailed work, great expressions all around.
