According to the blurb when this was published:  

"Squadron of the Screaming Damned is their amazing follow up to London Calling which we released to critical acclaim in 2010.  Once again featuring Charlotte Corday – the mysterious secret agent whose missions are so top secret even she doesn’t know what they are – the story begins with a WWII German U-boat surfacing in Charlotte’s bathtub, as Page and Walsh give us another fabulous dose of the weird and wonderful that made London Calling such a hit."

Now I really loved London Calling even if I cannot find my review on CBO -or was it on the old CBO? Never mind.

I was reading this at 0330 hrs this morning. This is the weird and fantastic at its best.  It had all the elements that for me, as a comic reader who likes the quirky and odd, worked!  Great fun story....or was it? I forget.  It was a great fun story....was it---we could go on for days like this!

Seriously, buy this one and I note London Calling is still available.  Man, if you don't buy both these books then you are a complete mental.  You should not be reading quality comic books.  I think the late Brian Edwards would have loved this!
