Willie & Joe: Back Home

Bill Mauldin's seminal World War II cartoons, Willie & Joe, find a poignant postwar continuation in this 2011 Fantagraphics collection. Featuring Mauldin's iconic, weary GIs as they grapple with the disillusionments of homecoming, the single volume gathers his rarely seen Willie & Joe: Back Home strip from the 1950s. It stands as a vital, unsentimental document of the veteran experience, extending the legacy of one of America's most honored cartoonists.
