Vietnam Journal Book Eight

The acclaimed series from Don Lomax continues in this eighth trade paperback collecting the entire series. But each volume story line stands on its own. Scott 'Journal' Neithammer is a journalist who finds that when you enter a war, there is no way to stay as a non-combatant. This volume collects the never released-in-print material of "Brain Dead Horror" which ran on Vietnam Journal Continuum over the last few years. Featuring 'Journal' impersonating an officer and having to lead men in combat! This collection also contains the short tales of "Dustoff" and "Zipper Raid". With Vietnam Journal now part of the War Stories website and his interview on the History Channel's website, creator Don Lomax has expanded the awareness of the Vietnam Journal series. Recommended by the Military Book Club. The original series was picked by Entertainment Weekly as "a graphic novel you should own" and recommended by the Military History Book Club. "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
