    American Splendor Unsung Hero (2002) 2

    Written by Harvey Pekar. Art and cover by David Collier. Harvey Pekar continues his character study of Vietnam veteran Robert McNeill. Far more than a typical war story, Pekar and McNeill journey through the nuances of the experience, dissecting what it meant for Robert to be a black man in an already racially charged environment, and his interactions with the influences -- both friendly and unfriendly -- that surrounded him. Once again, Harvey Pekar masterfully illuminates a subtle aspect of the human condition that few others are willing or able to tackle. 32 pages, FC. Cover price $3.99.
