Buck Danny

From 1986 to 2012, Rombaldi published a 14-issue run of Buck Danny, a classic military aviation comic series that follows the daring exploits of a U.S. Navy pilot and his squadron. While the series originally launched decades earlier, this specific Rombaldi era is notable for its continuation of the beloved, action-packed aerial adventures, with Francis Bergèse handling both writing and art for much of the run. The series matters as a long-running, technically detailed tribute to jet-age aviation, maintaining the spirit of its creators while keeping the hero soaring through modern Cold War-era conflicts.
