Product Description
Follows legendary World War I German fighter pilot Hans von Hammer, a.k.a. the Enemy Ace, as he struggles with his conscience while carrying out his duty to his country during World War II.
From 1914 to 1918, Hans Von Hammer earned the nickname "The Hammer of Hell" in the bloody skies of World War I. Now it's World War II, and blood rains from the skies once again! Von Hammer, the finest pilot Germany has ever known, is now a 46-year-old man with plenty of enemies in the Nazi regime.
The Germans manage to put the first fighter jets into combat against the encroaching Americans and British fighter planes, as the untold tale of the "Hammer of Hell's" experience in World War II comes to a close. Will the aging ace survive the horrors he's forced to face?
The ENEMY ACE: War In Heaven trade paperback will please old time fans of Hans Von Hammer and DC's war titles of yesteryear. Undoubtedly, those who worship Garth Ennis will also find it to their liking.
At 46 years old, Hans Von Hammer a.k.a. The Hammer Of Hell due to his fantastic World War I military record is called upon by the Nazi regime to join the battle against the Russians. Von Hammer does not share Hitler's vision but the chance to fly a fighter aircraft to protect his homeland and fellow countrymen overcomes him. Although he has not flown a military plane since 1918, Von Hammer is still able to outmatch Germany's opponents with his keen mind, skill and impeccable air fighting strategy. With his competence, courage and legendary status, Von Hammer earns the respect of his fellow pilots and blatantly defies not only his superiors but allows himself to openly disrespect Hitler alongside many Nazi officials.
THIS ITEM WAS ONLY AVAILABLE IN COMIC BOOK SPECIALTY SHOPS AND CANNOT BE FOUND IN ANY MASS MARKET RETAIL OUTLET.
