Описание:

Don Lomax's critically acclaimed Vietnam Journal is back with all new tales of Scott 'Journal' Neithammer as he reports on the heartache and headache, and the young soldiers on both sides of the Vietnam War. This volume takes 'Journal' from late 1969, the Monsoon season, to May of 1970, and the beginning of the Cambodian incursion. As the war officially spreads into that neighboring country and tests the South Vietnamese Military on their capabilities of sustaining the war against the North Vietnamese Communists on their own. Along the way 'Journal' finds himself caught in the crosshairs of a juvenile sniper, and a private war for his own sanity as he is forced to fight a plague of rats at a forward firebase. And from a bitter sweet tryst in a back street bar in Saigon, to rolling into Cambodia with an untrustworthy cameraman new to his craft...the action never stops and questions about Neithammer's career choice continually lay just below the surface.

Collects issues 1-5 of Vietnam Journal Series Two.

Описание:

Scott "Journal" Niethammer returns to report on the seemingly endless conflict and this time he heads into Cambodia as the incursion of that country is well underway by United States and South Vietnamese military forces. He is accompanied by a slightly erratic photographer with the unhealthy attitude that he is impervious to enemy fire when behind the camera's lens. While in Cambodia they meet a pistol packing, single-minded Nun and dozens of ethnic Vietnamese orphans who have been delivered a death sentence by Cambodia's new acting Prime Minister, Lon Nol. With Journal's help they make a desperate race for the border and salvation. Now wanted by the Judge Advocate General's office for questioning, Journal retreats back into Cambodia hoping the farce will all blow over. But he meets a female reporter as much an outcast from the mainstream media as he. Their similarities create a bond until the war finds a way to force the heavy hand of horror into their fledgling relationship. And lastly, racism and drugs rear their ugly heads as rear echelon United States troops are moved forward in a support capacity for the line troops. Their real world prejudices and minimal training threaten to rot the core of the effort from the inside out. And the ever present enemy awaits any opportunity to hand the Americans a sound defeat should there be a misstep in their favor.

Collects Vietnam Journal Series Two comic book issues 6-10.

Описание:

From HARVEY AWARD nominee and award winning writer and artist Don Lomax. Based on the true story of an American spy in Vietnam as told to Don Lomax by agent Robert Durand who chronicles the tale. Durand was a member of a black-ops team, code-named "Shining Brass." This graphic novel depicts the horrific atrocities witnessed and performed by the once naive special forces member as he attempts to perform his duties and understand the true meaning behind the madness. Durand's group was under the command of a combined force, comprised of every branch of the services, and headed up by the ever-popular Central Intelligence Committee. This book is a journey into a shadow world of treachery and deceit--and reveals the way lives of Americans were traded about carelessly during the war in Vietnam. Collects the complete High Shining Brass comic book series issues 1-4.

It chronicles the lives and events of soldiers on the front line during the Vietnam War.

BOOK ONE collects the very first issues #1-4. Vietnam Journal is written and drawn by Don Lomax, a Vietnam War veteran.

Has been picked by Entertainment Weekly as "a graphic novel you should own" and recommended by the Military History Book Club, along with Max Brooks (World War Z) who names Vietnam Journal as one of his best war comic series.

"Lomax bases his fictional work on his real experiences in Vietnam in 1966, with powerful results. It is Lomax's concern for average soldiers that, in the end, makes his work significant." - Publishers Weekly.

"This is, without a doubt, the most graphic, realistic and emotionally powerful portrayal of the Vietnam War that's ever been seen in comic form." - Jason E. Aaron, Wizard's 2008 Best Writer.
