    Weird War Tales Special (2000) 1

    It's time to go back to the trenches. Enter WEIRD WAR TALES Special #1, a 64-page one-shot once again updating the popular DC title of the early '70s with a VERTIGO edge. Featuring a riveting painted cover by Phil Hale (FLINCH #1) and an array of incredible creative talent, WWT presents seven stories that take a not-so-loving look at humanity's favorite pastime. In "Nosh and Barry and Eddie and Joe," written by Garth Ennis with art by Jim Lee, a team of British Special Forces soldiers uncovers the horrific truth about what really went down on their top secret mission in Bosnia; in "Esprit de Corps," written by Greg Rucka with art by Danijel Zezelj, a Green Beret discovers that reinforcements come in all shapes and sizes; and, in "Mind Field," written by Bruce Jones with art by Paul Pope, a desperate man must fend off an alien invasion of strangely underwhelming proportions. Rounding out this full clip of stories are "The Spoils of War" (written by Robert Rodi with art by Frank Teran), in which a triumphant conqueror discovers that some prizes are better left unclaimed; "Isihlangu" (written by Chuck Dixon with art by Quique Alcatena), in which a Zulu warrior rushes to battle protected by a magical suit of armor; "Imagine" (written by Miles Gunter with art by Marcelo Frusin), in which a Vietnam P.O.W. learns just how much he's willing to barter to save his life; and finally, "A Prayer to the Sun" (written by Darko Macan with art by Edvin Biukovic), in which an unstoppable force cuts a bloody swath through time and space. This project is supported with house ads. WEIRD WAR TALES Special #1 is a 64-page VERTIGO one-shot edited by Axel Alonso and is suggested for mature readers. " Cover price $4.95.
