For a change of pace, we now offer you a Great Aerial Drama in seven panels.
The year is also 1915, and the “Fokker Scourge” was at it's peak. The character is flying a Fokker E1 “Eindecker”, while the antagonist has a Nieuport 11 “Bebe”
The Decorations are the “Iron Cross First Class” and the “Star of the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross” respectively. The latter decoration was the highest distinction awarded in the German Empire, and was only awardes twice, in 1813 to Feldmarschall Paul Von Hindemburg and 1918 to Generalfeldmarschall von Blucher.

I love the way his mind's eye focuses on the honours he aspires to, but in the end they're all crosses, which is what he sends his enemy to and what he'll end with up himself. Not wearing it, but [i]under[/i] it. :( You're right about these pages; perfectly eloquent without words.
