Comic book. “Wings of Time – Volume 3 – The Age of Warbirds”
Third volume of this original comic book series on the theme of time travel. After jumping back in time to World War I, we now head to 1939-1945!
In the first two volumes of “Les Ailes du temps” (Wings of Time), the protagonists Lucie and Dunk found themselves caught in a space-time hole that took them from 2024 to… 1917! Finding themselves on the front lines of the Great War, the two companions, with their opposing temperaments, managed as best they could to overcome all the obstacles that stood in their way, particularly within Lucie’s own family, as they began to discover that she was usurping the identity of her great-great-aunt…
In this new volume, Lucie and Dunk are once again thrown into the vortex and think they are returning to 2024. Unfortunately, this time they find themselves in the middle of the American fleet of World War II aircraft, just as the Provence landings (June 15, 1944) are about to take place. Their aircraft, not the one they used to travel back in time, is shot down by US Air Force planes.
To find their way back to the present day, they will have to use their ingenuity, evading the Allies, the Resistance, and even the Germans. Among the latter, a pilot who had spotted them in 1917 and become a high-ranking officer in Nazi Germany could cause them serious trouble by getting his hands on their F-18, which no one knows if it “survived” the interwar period. This possibility could change the course of World War II, and therefore history…
