2024: From veteran comic writer/artist Wayne Vansant, the military tales of the French Legionnaire soldier Battron continue! July, 1943. In preparation for the British-American invasion of Sicily, Battron parachutes onto the island with a mixed group of Allied intelligence operators. Led by his old comrade Captain Watson-Cole (SOE), and a young Lt. Beck (OSS) who has family relations within the Italian population, and underworld connections stretching back to the New York Mafia. The team is on Sicily to report on German troop and supply movements to the frontlines. But by seeking the aid of the local underworld, they may have very well put themselves up for sale to the Germans.
