(page is in french because the comic is in french as well). There is a sample from it so you can check if it matches your memory.
Title : Kaleunt

Oh my.. yes that's the one.
I knew it as soon as I saw the cover:
Great to see it again, thx a lot mate.
*Discription:
(used Babelfish for translation so it might be a bit crappy)
'Second World war. In the full Atlantic, Kapitan-Leutnant (Kaleunt) and its crew furrow the sea, in their submarine, while waiting to locate a prey.
After some attacks and shivers, U-boat returns at the base, posting its table of hunting proudly.
But the war invites these men to take again the broad one quickly, and pushes the submarine towards its destiny...' (man, this sounds just like my last patroll..)
*Review:
' The first "surprising" aspect of this comic it is its narrative point of view since during WW2 we follow the German troops. The heroes are the captain of a submarine and his men of crew, who pass their life in the depths...
The drawings agree magnificiently well with the history, and the atmosphere of this data base is enough to justify the reading of it. It is a heavy, glaucous environment and throughout the progression in the history, one feels that it will occur something... It is very well told and one is made take, the reader becomes actor, one is absorbed by the boards and one has really the impression to also sail us in it under sailor, with these soldiers.
Really it is a very good comic, and without any doubt one of best on the subject.' (no kidding, what other comics are about U-Boats?)
Okeee...next problem, how to get it, now I want it even more. Let's hope they make reprints or someone has one who wants to sell it.. :hmm:
(btw, why do they call Kaleun 'Kaleunt'? Is that how is should be written?)
