One of my new series hits stands this week. "War is Hell: Flight of the Phantom Eagle" is published through Marvel's Max imprint. Which means it's a mature readers title. I just found this early review on comicbookresources.com

"War Is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle" #1: I forgot about this book, but it's out this week. It's Garth Ennis doing what he does best -- writing World War I stories. This time, it's about a British man who flies onto a base and lies his way into the fighting squadron in the early days of air warfare. There's a lot of questions as to just what exactly is going on here, but Ennis doesn't overwhelm you with it. He creates, instead, scenes that are satisfying and that will carry you through the book. Howard Chaykin's art is the best it's looked since he returned to comics regularly a few short years ago. Maybe it's the source material he has to work with here that inspires him, but everything looks authentic and detailed. The airplane battles are especially compelling. (There might be a Sketch-Up airplane model or two involved.) Brian Reber's coloring helps everything pop out, and Todd Klein's lettering is relevant to the book, particularly the worn typewriter-style font he uses in captions.

If you're looking for a war comic, this is a good one." - Augie De Blieck Jr.
