He's a soldier. A man who's made a career of following orders, going where he's sent and doing what he's told. But the times have changed and so has he. The gung-ho career militarist's experiences have made him disillusioned and bitter...and his life and the experience of war will never be the same again. Meet THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER...but don't expect him to be like any other soldier you've ever met before. And don't expect the 12-issue UNKNOWN SOLDIER maxi-series to be like any other war comic you've ever read. Not by a long shot. Because not only will you be introduced to the horrors of one man's war, but you'll also get to know the man himself as the SOLDIER's true origin and secrets are revealed over the course of the series. But first he'll have to go through the process of "Looking for Charlie" as his commanders send him to Cambodia and he finds himself trapped between the Viet Cong and a group of deadly arms smugglers. THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER is a 12-issue New Format maxi-series written by Jim Owsley and drawn by British artist Phil Gascoine. Cover by Gascoine. Suggested for Mature Readers. Cover price $1.50.

1st printing.
Story and art by Tardi. Translated by Jenna Allen.
Mad geniuses, Jules Verne-style deliriums, dinosaurs, sex, bloodshed, and the madness of World War I — two strange and surreal early works by a master of the comics form.
Fantagraphics presents two experimental, early works by the French cartooning legend Tardi. These comics, created in the mid-'70s, provide a fascinating preview of the masterworks of his prolific career. While they are not narratively linked, an eerie sense of foreboding suffuses stories in this collection: they both depict sex and brutal violence and condemn the horrors of war.
The True Story of the Unknown Soldier follows a pulp novelist turned soldier who, driven to delirium amidst the trenches of WWI, becomes tormented by visions of his own seedy creations. This stream-of-consciousness tale visualizes the tortured psyche of its protagonist through dazzling dreamscapes and surreal scenarios. In The National Razor, a soldier returns from war a shattered man. Drowning himself in drink, he wanders the streets of Paris without purpose; in this numb stupor, he finds himself caught up in strange situations, lashes out in unexpectedly violent ways, and ultimately meets with a bloody end. At once a visceral depiction of the trauma wrought by war and a powerful denunciation of the death penalty and France's iconic guillotine.
Hardcover, 9-in. x 12-in., 64 pages, B&W. Mature Readers
