Written by Garth EnnisArt by Carlos Ezquerra and Hector Ezquerra
This was the strangest of the three Battlefields mini-series. The first gave us a story told from both sides or perspectives in the war. The second was the most tightly-plotted thing that Ennis has written in years. This one was one of the loosest.
I expected that the various groups of characters that have been in this book since the beginning might meet up at some point. I also expected that some major battle might get fought. Not really. Perhaps this adds a layer of veracity to the war story - it's a lot of driving around lost, followed by some waiting. As a plot for a comic, it's strange though.
That said, I enjoyed this series, and I'm pleased to read that Ennis is bringing it back for three more series next year. I'm in.
