- Late summer, 1942. As the German army smashes deep into Soviet Russia and
the defenders of the Motherland retreat in disarray, a new bomber squadron
arrives at a Russian forward airbase. Its crews will fly flimsy wooden biplanes
on lethal night missions over German lines, risking fiery death as they fling
themselves against the invader- but for these pilots, the consequences of
capture will be even worse. For the pilots of the 599th Night Bomber Regiment
are women. In the deadly skies of the Eastern front, they will become a legend-
known, to friend and foe alike, as the Night Witches.- Dynamite presents the first stories of the acclaimed Battlefields
series in one massive, oversized hardcover — Night Witches, Dear
Billy, and Tankies. This edition features some ever-so-slight tweaks
the creators have meticulously restored, plus bonus art material including a
complete cover gallery and a special look at the making of the
stories.
