The story shifts to Great War and in particular the opposing French and German lines at Verdun.
The author of the diary, Jean Brunaud claims to have seen the creature killing both French and German troops in no-man’s land. German soldiers find French troops butchered and the French think the creature is a German super-weapon
Barry’s story majors on the futility of the great war and the treatment of the soldiers in the trenches by their superiors. His art, with Warner’s inks, is great and the ending is neatly tied up in what is an enjoyable two-parter
