Battle Action #8 is out now and Molch-R & KLO-E are joined by writer Torunn Grønbekk to talk about her 'Nina Petrova and the Angels of Death'. There's diversions aplenty – and some bad language – as they touch on everything from history, Hitler's secret s*x life, and trying to paint World War Two bi-planes!

Using wooden Polikarpov Po-2 biplanes, these Soviet all-female bomber crews harrassed Nazi soldiers on the Eastern Front of World War Two, who dubbed them ‘Nachthexen’ – the Night Witches. In her latest 'Nina Petrova' story for Battle Action, Grønbekk and artist Patrick Goddard revisit the risks and heroism of these celebrated but little-known aviatrixes.
