“Humpin' the Boonies”

In "Humpin' the Boonies," Corporal Marks and his squad stumble upon a ruined village deep in the Vietnamese countryside, their quiet mission shattered by the grim aftermath. As Sgt. Polkow takes decisive action against a corrupt officer, new arrivals bring shifting dynamics to the front lines—where survival depends as much on trust as it does on firepower. Written by Doug Murray and brought to life with gritty precision by Michael Golden, this 1987 issue captures the tension and moral complexity of war, with inks by John Beatty and colors by Phil Felix, all under a striking cover by Michael Golden.
