DMZ #1

This volume collects the first story arc of Brian Wood and Riccardo Burchielli's acclaimed Vertigo series, set in a near-future America torn apart by a second civil war. It follows freelance journalist Matty Roth as he becomes stranded in the demilitarized zone of Manhattan, a dangerous no-man's-land caught between the U.S. government and the Free States forces. The collection introduces the gritty, war-torn world and Roth's struggle to survive and report from the front lines.
