Vietnam Journal - Book One: Indian Country: Vietnam Journal, cartea 1

Autor Don Lomax
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 apr 2017
The acclaimed comic book war series from Don Lomax, nominated for a Harvey Award, is now presented as a series of graphic novel volume collections.

Vietnam Journal is a look at the Vietnam War through the eyes of a war journalist Scott Neithammer, a freelance reporter the troops have nicknamed "Journal". As an embedded reporter, Neithammer has a single minded focus and obsession to report the controversial war from the "grunt's" point of view and to hell with the consequences. 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.
