Last Day in Vietnam #[nn]

Will Eisner brings his unmatched storytelling sensibility to this collection of wartime vignettes drawn from his experiences during the Vietnam era. The cover sets the tone perfectly — soldiers move cautiously through a hazy, watercolor-rendered landscape of tall grass and tropical terrain, while military helicopters hover in the smoke-filled sky above, the muted palette conveying both the beauty and unease of the setting. With a foreword by Matt Fraction, this 2013 Dark Horse edition is a quiet, affecting testament to Eisner's gift for finding deeply human stories within the fog of conflict.
