AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'World War II rages in the Pacific as the enemy thrust attempts to regain control of the Huon Peninsula … Amongst the day and night battles with roadblocks, intense skirmishes and moving sweeps of enemy soldiers, word spreads of a Digger who wears a leather mask, whose forearms bear the Australian Southern Cross, and who fights like nothing they’ve ever seen. He is “The Soldier”. The Soldier is born twice over in the pages of this first issue: within the jungle of New Guinea in the 1940s and in 2011 in the streets of suburban Brisbane. Both from different events, but both follow the one promise: to keep lives safe.'
