Captain Aero Comics #13 [15]
"Victory in the East" kicks off with a haunting tale of betrayal and exile, as a Japanese-American professor—wronged by a cruel act of violence—returns to his ancestral homeland with a storm of vengeance in his heart. Written by Thor Carlyle and brought to life with stark, expressive art by Jack Alderman, this 1944 story unfolds with a tense, personal gravity, set against the backdrop of a world at war. The cover, a striking piece by Alex Schomburg, captures the mood with a dramatic, shadowed figure silhouetted against a burning skyline.
