  • Book cover of The Stringbags
    Garth Ennis

     · 2020

    If you do the incredible often enough, they'll want you to do the impossible. ​ Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, and Fascist Italy began World War II with aircraft that could devastate enemy warships and merchantmen at will. Britain's Royal Navy squadrons went to war equipped with the Fairey Swordfish. A biplane torpedo bomber in an age of monoplanes, the Swordfish was underpowered and undergunned; an obsolete museum piece, an embarrassment. Its crews fully expected to be shot from the skies. Instead, they flew the ancient Stringbag into legend. ​ Writer Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys, War Stories) and artist PJ Holden (Battlefields, World of Tanks: Citadel) present the story of the men who crewed the Swordfish: from their triumphs against the Italian Fleet at Taranto and the mighty German battleship Bismarck in the Atlantic, to the deadly challenge of the Channel Dash in the bleak winter waters of their homeland. They lived as they flew, without a second to lose--and the greatest tributes to their courage would come from the enemy who strove to kill them. Based on the true story of the Royal Navy's Swordfish crews, The Stringbags is an epic tale of young men facing death in an aircraft almost out of time.

    Ich bin zufrieden mit meinem Leben, Danke." Es hat bisher nur wenige Gelegenheiten gegeben, bei denen John Constantine, der größte Magier der Welt, diese Worte hätte sagen können und sie auch so gemeint hätte. Sein okkultes Wissen und sein scharfsinniges Urteil musste er sich hart erarbeiten, und dafür hat er mit Blut bezahlt – mit seinem eigenen, dem seiner Freunde und dem von Unschuldigen, die in den Rüstungswettlauf von Möchtegernzauberern auf der Suche nach Macht hineingeraten sind. Aber nachdem er die Welt mehrfach gerettet hat und in einem Abwasch mit dem Teufel und seinem Lungenkrebs fertig geworden ist, hat Constantine endlich das Gefühl, dass er das Spiel gewinnen kann – besonders, da eine junge Frau namens Kit Ryan wieder in seinem Leben aufgetaucht ist.
