Enemy Ace takes to the skies.(The Gazette)
DC Comics will be flying the not-so-friendly skies in March.
Hans Von Hammer, the Enemy Ace, will be taking to those skies in a two-part series, "Enemy Ace: War in Heaven."
Back when Sgt. Rock, the Unknown Soldier and other hard-edged heroes battled for readers' attention, Enemy Ace emerged as arguably the most intriguing war character of all.
He's a German fighter pilot with no equal; Gerard Jones' "The Comic Book Heroes" hails Enemy Ace's adventures, portrayed by writer Robert Kanigher and artist Joe Kubert, as "the most acclaimed war series ever with the most human warrior in the genre, a World War I German flying ace who detests war so profoundly that he shuts down emotionally and is branded a death machine by the men who don't know the anguish that devours him."
This time, writer Garth Ennis is guiding Von Hammer's adventures, with Chris Weston and Christian Alamy handling the art on the first issue of "War in Heaven" and Russ Heath on the second. And this time, Von Hammer is battling in a different conflict: World War II.
As the story opens, he's not battling at all. Von Hammer, now in his mid-40s, is doing his best to live a quiet, isolated life in a castle in the mountains of Bavaria.
"I have no more desire to go to war," he tells an old comrade. "Especially not for Nazis."
