The 'Nam #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Humpin' the Boonies," veteran writer Doug Murray and artist Michael Golden deliver a gripping, character-driven tale set in the heart of the Vietnam War. Through the eyes of Duong, a Kit-Carson scout navigating a divided loyalty, the story unfolds with quiet intensity, capturing the weight of survival and choice in a war that never ends. The dynamic collaboration between Golden’s bold pencils and Wayne Vansant’s inks, enhanced by Phil Felix’s rich colors and Kurt Hathaway’s sharp lettering, brings a raw authenticity to this powerful moment in The 'Nam series.
Corporal Ed Marks and his squad stumble upon a ruined village deep in the Vietnamese countryside, the silence broken only by the weight of what they’ve found. As tensions rise and new orders arrive, Sgt. Polkow takes a stand against a corrupt officer, setting off a chain of events that tests the bond between men already pushed to their limits.
In "Good Old Days," Duong recounts his complex journey from fighting alongside the communist forces to becoming a Kit-Carson scout for the U.S. Army, navigating loyalty, survival, and the shifting tides of war. Through his reflections, he shares memories shaped by a past tied to Phan Boi Chau, a figure whose legacy echoes through the choices he’s made.
In the humid silence of the jungle, Ed Marks and his squad stumble upon a hidden tunnel—its mouth choked with vines and shadows. With a specialist injured and the mission hanging in the balance, Ed steps forward, knowing the dark passage could lead to danger or salvation. As the weight of the earth presses in, he’s not just fighting the unknown, but the growing dread of what lies ahead.
