Synopsis:

Relive the daring and terrifying adventures of the flyers of the Second World War in six of the most exciting stories from Air Ace Picture Library.

These superbly drawn comic strips, which have been reproduced 25 per cent bigger than the originals, brilliantly evoke the fighting machines that were pitted against each other - the Spitfires, Hurricanes and Messerchmitts, the Lancasters, Wellingtons and Focke-Wulfs.

From Battle of Britain dogfights over Blighty to flak-blasted bombing missions over the Fatherland, these classic comic book adventures put you in the cockpit alongside the RAF heroes who helped to bring Nazi Germany to her knees.
