Aces High : The 10 Best Air Ace Picture Library Comic Books Ever!

The flyers were seen as the glamour boys of the Second World War, handling the most sophisticated and technically advanced combat machines ever invented, and there was almost limitless scope to develop stories based around their exploits. The machines that they flew - Spitfires, Hurricanes, Messerschmitts, Mustangs and Zeros - were lovingly recreated by the Air Ace artists, when the new Air Ace Picture Library appeared in 1960. Those images are reproduced here 25 per cent larger than in their original published form, pulling you into close formation in the thick of the action. The ten stories in Aces High take you from the flak-blasted night sky over Germany to the sweltering heat of the tropics, twisting and turning like a Typhoon with a Focke Wolf in its sights!
