The 'Nam: 1966-1969 Omnibus -- Doug Murray, Hardcover

Marvel's groundbreaking saga of the Vietnam War gets the Omnibus treatment!

Don't worry about choosing sides. This far into the heart of darkness, things get pretty gray. Follow Private Ed Marks and his fellow soldiers through a jungle of blood, lies, betrayal and valor. And meet Mike "Ice" Phillips - one of the few brave souls who stayed with the series until nearly its end. It's the war that defined a generation - where the heroes may not be super, but they're all too human. The men of the 23rd Infantry Division face a battle for survival, complete with flashbacks on the front, worries in the world back home and murder in the ranks. New soldiers enter the war, and old ones leave it - and there are too many bad ways to leave a war. Plus: The battle lines get even blurrier as enemies display their humanity and soldiers show their darker sides.

About the Author
Doug Murray is an American comic book writer and novelist. He served as a non-commissioned officer in the Army in Vietnam during the Vietnam War. He worked as a writer for The Monster Times newspaper in the early 1970s, and later as a Marvel Comics writer from 1984 to 1991. He was the main writer on the popular 1980s comic book series The 'Nam, published by Marvel.

Artist Michael Golden's realistic artwork on The 'Nam chronicled a platoon of Vietnam War soldiers in a series widely acclaimed by both readers and veterans of the military conflict. He contributes cover artwork to a variety of projects, including Batman and Superman.

Original Rawhide Kid artist John Severin's career began during the-mid 1950s at the legendary EC Comics, earning the young artist recognition for his work illustrating popular Western titles and the classic war comic Two-Fisted Tales. With the demise of EC, Severin continued to work in the Western and war genres at Atlas Comics, an early incarnation of Marvel. Severin also earned regular assignments with his humorous style -- first for Mad Magazine and then its closest competitor, Cracked. Severin soon became Cracked's in-house cartoonist, guiding the humor magazine's irreverent style for nearly 40 years until his retirement from the publication in 2000. In 2003, Severin was inducted into the Comic Book Hall of Fame, a rare honor accorded to only a select number of industry professionals. Also in 2003, Severin returned to his Western roots with a critically acclaimed reinterpretation of Rawhide Kid. He continues to contribute new work, including Desperadoes: Quiet of the Grave.
