Publisher's summary

In 1915 France, the Great War rages and a new breed of hero takes to the skies. Part bull-terrier, part daredevil, the aces of the Royal Flying Corps' 5th Squadron are Britain's elite. It was an era of counter-intelligence, dogfights, and drinking songs. But that was before the world changed. That was before the Elementals! When a routine mission goes awry, the 5th Squadron finds itself trapped in an unreal world called The Source. Here, giant bat-like creatures dominate the world keeping the Universe, and all of its parallel realities, in a precarious balance. But despite its serene appearance, it is a violent, predatory land. Trapped along with Germany's greatest flying ace, they all must work together to find a way back home.

at times there could have and should have been narration as the story was tough to follow

Has Potential

It’s my understanding that this is a comic book adaption. The premise intrigued me. The full cast and sound effects were great. Comics are a visual medium - you can see the action take place. I feel like something was lost in translation. There were parts where I wasn’t quite sure what was happening. The sound effects helped but often overshadowed the dialogue. I think the script would have benefited with more background narration describing events with the sound effects enhancing the story. I liked it and I’ll look for more from these performers but I think the script/narration could have been better.
