French courage

From the Northlanders series of comic books, The Siege of Paris: 3, written by Brian Wood :

(These are the first few lines from the comic and they're accompanied by appropriate sketches of war and destruction.)


Paris A.D. 886


The bridge fell.


The tower stands alone.


The men rallied.


The French panicked.


Not fair to the French, for sure. But amusing to read nonetheless.
