Written and illustrated by Don Lomax, the volume captures the harrowing realities of combat through a reporter's eyes, blending historical detail with raw human emotion.
In "Chapter One: Point," Robert Durand leads a high-stakes rescue mission deep in Laos, pulling a double-agent and a group of children from a dangerous extraction zone. As tensions rise, Durand begins to suspect that someone within his own ranks—Colonel Nawith—may be feeding information to the enemy, setting the stage for a betrayal that could cost them all. The story unfolds with tense precision, illustrated by Don Lomax and inked by Rose Lomax, with lettering by Clem Robins.
In "Chapter Two: Chameleon," Robert Durand, a weary operative returning to Saigon after a second tour behind enemy lines, seeks to finally secure the long-denied supplies for his unit—only to find the city itself a shifting, uncertain landscape. Written by Robert Durand and Don Lomax, with art by Don Lomax and Rose Lomax, the story captures the tension and quiet desperation of war through a lens of personal resolve and unseen danger.
In "Chapter Four: Sanctioned," Robert Durand and his squad push deep into Laos on a desperate mission to rescue a double-agent and a group of children, only to uncover a betrayal that puts their lives in even greater danger. As tensions rise and trust erodes, Durand must confront the chilling possibility that someone within their own ranks is working against them. Don Lomax’s stark, evocative art and Rose Lomax’s precise inks bring the weight of war and moral ambiguity to life, while Clem Robins’ letters anchor the story’s relentless pace.
