For the crews of the 599th NIght Bomber Regiment are women. In the deadly skies of the Eastern front, they will become a legend- known, to friend and foe alike, as The Night Witches.
1942: in the tropical splendour of the South China Sea, as war spreads across the far east, a young woman finds herself in paradise- and then in hell. Nurse Carrie Sutton is caught up in the Japanese invasion of Singapore, suffering horrors beyond her worst imaginings. Now she attempts to start her life anew, buoyed up by a growing friendship with a young pilot- and, incredibly, a chance for revenge. But even victory can be a hollow prize, as Carrie discovers to her cost- in Dear Billy.

As Panzer units and SS troops turn the French countryside into a killing ground, a lone British tank crew struggles to rejoin their squadron.

Written by LLOYD CHAO, CHRISTINE CHI, LONG TO
Art & Cover by PAT LEE
A thousand years ago, the rugged frontier border of the great Chinese Empire was being attacked by a powerful enemy known as the Liao. A fiercely-patriotic clan of Chinese warriors – commanded by male members of one family — the Yang — heroically held their ground to the last man.
The widows of the men pleaded with the embattled Emperor to send reinforcements. But none came. Incensed, the women – a few hundred strong and many themselves seasoned warriors – set off on a mission of revenge.
But the enemy was formidable. Before soldiers even crossed swords, the Liao conjured up everything to throw at the Widow Warriors: deadly tornadoes, zombie fighters, fearsome beasts, treacherous spies and powerful sorcery.
Down to but a few dozen, facing overwhelming odds and battling the demons within themselves, the Widow Warriors arrived for the final showdown at the nearly impregnable enemy fortress at Black Wind Mountain.
COLLECTION FEATURES:
• Issues 1 through 4 of the Widow Warriors mini-series by Pat Lee, Lloyd Chao, and based on the Screenplay “Twelve Heroines Go West” by Christine To Chi-Long
