Von Bek’s saga still needs a real ending. Saga (2024) left it hanging with just War Hound + Autumn Stars. White Wolf (1995) went further but swapped in The Dragon—a John Daker tale. And Brothel in Rosenstrasse, the key to the whole arc, was cast into oblivion.

Almost 90 percent of funds Congress approves for Ukraine military aid is being used stateside to build new weapons or to replace ones sent from U.S. stockpiles.
