Fax de Sarajevo

A single, potent graphic novel by Joe Kubert, Fax de Sarajevo presents a starkly personal account of the Bosnian War through the actual faxes exchanged between the author and his son David, who remained in the besieged city. Published by Vertige Graphic in 1997, this is not a superhero story but a raw, documentary-style work that uses Kubert's powerful, unadorned art to convey the grim reality of daily survival. It stands as a unique and urgent testament to the power of comics as journalism and personal witness.
