After the bombs fall, the Imperial Japanese Army seized the Chinese capital of Nanjing. Now screams echo off the rubble as two abandoned Chinese soldiers—trapped and desperately outnumbered inside the walled city—try to escape. What they’ll encounter will haunt them. But in the face of horror, they’ll learn that resistance and bravery cannot be destroyed.

C’est vraiment pas mal, ce truc. Dessin très dynamique mixant avec bonheur le manga et comic, narration au poil, personnages riches et épais, situations diverses qui désamorcent rapidement le manichéisme. C’est plutôt bien vu, sans jamais écraser l’émotion sous l’action. Recommandé.
