Second volume of a two-part spin-off exploring the beginnings of the young Buck Danny and his companions Tucson and Tumbler, “Le Fils du Viking noir” plunges us into the middle of the 1943 Pacific War.
In the first volume of the “Origins” spin-off of “Buck Danny”, the young pilot took to the skies six months after the Imperial Japanese Army attacked the American base at Pearl Harbor, learned of the death of his father and found himself in a precarious situation on board a lifeboat drifting in the middle of the Pacific…
This second volume sees the young Buck gradually becoming a valued asset to the American aviation scene. But his teenage past continues to resurface and haunt his dreams. Between a childhood sweetheart likely lost forever, memories of an aerobatics show that inspired his calling to be a pilot, and the young man’s doubts about his father’s behavior during the First World War, Buck Danny navigates the troubled waters of his inner turmoil!
But he is soon assigned to a most sensitive mission: neutralizing a prominent general from the Empire of the Rising Sun! A task that could well make him change his mind about his “old man” and remove the suspicions that weigh on his memory as a soldier in the Great War…
