Written by GARTH ENNIS Penciled by DARICK ROBERTSON Inked by JIMMY PALMIOTTI Cover by MIKE DEODATO JR. Part One: 'Kasserine Pass': Before he presided over S.H.I.E.L.D., before he ran with the Howling Commandos, Sgt. Nick Fury fought on the blood-stained sands of the Tunisian desert. It was here that he came face to face with the incomparable might of the 21st Panzer Division and its skilled warrior commander -- General Stephen Barkhorn -- and barely lived to tell about it. And it was there that he got a second chance at life...and revenge. In this gripping limited series, Garth Ennis (Ghost Rider, Punisher) and Darick Robertson (Punisher: Born) offer a never-before-seen glimpse into the soul of a warrior you only think you know.

Written by GARTH ENNIS. Penciled by DARICK ROBERTSON. Cover by GARY FRANK. The thrilling conclusion! Ever since Nick Fury joined the war, he's been mired in just as much incompetence, stupidity, and bad luck as actual fighting. Every mission has been an unmitigated disaster and this latest adventure has been no exception-having tracked an assassination target behind enemy lines, Fury and his small crew of soldiers are trapped in a mansion with German officers. Meanwhile, the man they were hoping to assassinate is leading an entire battalion against them! With a battle he hasn't a prayer of winning, Nick Fury will have to decide whether a fight to the death is all he has left to live for. Cover price $3.50.
