1st printing.

Based on the Work of Caius Julius Caesar. Adapted by Tarek. And cover by Vincent Pompetti.

The whole of Gaul is divided into three parts: one of which the Belgae inhabit, the Aquitani another, and the third a people who in their own language are called Celts, but in ours, Gauls. They all differ among themselves in respect of language, way of life, and laws….

Thus begins one of the major works of humanity, The Gallic War, written by a man who marked our history and subconscious, Julius Caesar.

Hardcover, 9-in. x 11-in., 136 pages, full color.

Story and Art by Harvey Kurtzman.

MAD would have been enough to cement Harvey Kurtzman's reputation as one of the titans of American comics, but he also created two other landmarks: the scrupulously-researched and superbly-crafted war comics Two-Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat. Like every book in the new Fantagraphics EC line, "Corpse on the Imjin!" will feature extensive essays and notes by EC experts - but Kurtzman's stories, as vital, powerful, and affecting and as when they were created 60 years ago, make this a must-have.

1st printing. Written by Daniel Marston and Carter Malkasian. Throughout history armies of occupation and civil power have been repeatedly faced with the challenges of insurgency. British and American involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan has highlighted this form of conflict in the modern world. Armies, sometimes reluctantly, have had to adopt new doctrines and tactics to deal with the problems of insurgency and diverse counterinsurgency strategies have been developed, ranging from conventional operations to a combination of propaganda and political strategy. Here, 13 authors examine the development of counterinsurgency from the early 20th century to the present. Including information on the Arab-Israeli conflict, Afghanistan and Iraq this book is a timely and accessible survey of a critical facet of modern warfare.
