review:
'Double 7' by Yann with art by Andre Juillard and translation by Montana Kane is a graphic novel about pilots during the Spanish Civil War.

The Spanish Civil War had involvement from many factions. This story is about those helping the Republicans who were fighting against Franco. The story has to do with a group of Soviet Union pilots and one who has earned the lucky name of Double 7. Hemingway was also in Spain at this time and shows up as a character in this story.

It should have been more interesting, but I had a hard time staying with the story. I don't know if more backstory might have helped, but I found myself not really caring for the characters. The art is pretty good, and that's what kept me turning pages.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
