The 'Nam #33

Marvel's ground-level Vietnam War series continues with issue #33, and Wayne Vansant's cover says it all — a bespectacled, gear-laden soldier stands caught in a harsh spotlight, arms spread wide, crying out "WHY ME?!?" while a helmet rests ominously on the darkened ground beside him. The image captures that particular mix of exasperation and dread that The 'Nam does so well, setting up a story titled "Back in the Saddle Again" that promises someone is being thrust back into a situation they'd rather avoid. Doug Murray and Vansant continue their unflinching, boots-on-the-ground approach to one of comics' most distinctive war titles.
