The 'Nam #12

Marvel's unflinching Vietnam series continues with issue #12, featuring a gripping cover by Michael Golden that plunges you directly into the chaos of jungle warfare — soldiers in full combat gear ride atop an armored personnel carrier, rifles at the ready, as dense Southeast Asian foliage presses in on all sides. The tension of men on patrol, exposed and alert, is rendered with the kind of gritty immediacy that made The 'Nam one of 1987's most compelling war comics. Inside, Doug Murray writes and John Severin illustrates "From Cedar Falls, With Love," a creative pairing that brings hard-earned authenticity to every page.
