On D-Day, June 6, 1944, an Allied force led by General Dwight D. Eisenhower launched the greatest seaborne military invasion in history. Supported by more than 13,000 aircraft, an army of over 150,000 Allied soldiers landed on the beaches of Normandy, France, in an operation that paved the way for the freedom of Nazi-occupied Europe and the end of Hitler’s terrifying regime.

This full-color comic book includes further reading, essential information on the background, aftermath and key players of the conflict. Through this exciting comic strip narrative, Dan Abnett dramatically brings to life the events of the momentous D-Day landings; a single day which forever altered the course of World War II.
