The Fantagraphics EC Artists' Library #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects Harvey Kurtzman's war stories from EC Comics' Two-Fisted Tales and Frontline Combat, including the landmark anti-war tale 'Corpse on the Imjin!' and other gritty, unglamorous depictions of combat from the Korean War and World War II. It's the first entry in Fantagraphics' EC Comics Artists Library series, presenting these stories in a hardcover archival format with restored art and supplementary essays.
"Conquest," a stark and haunting story from Harvey Kurtzman’s legendary EC Comics era, presents a soldier’s final moments as he lies wounded by the roadside, haunted by the near-miss of fate that might have spared him. Drawn, inked, and lettered by Kurtzman himself, with cover art by the same hand, this powerful tale captures a quiet, introspective tragedy in the midst of war.
