In Country: Marvel Comics’ “The ‘Nam” — Episode 51
Just after my extra-sized episode 50 comes another special episode. This time, I am talking about The ‘Nam but instead of covering a specific issue, I have a special guest, […]
We are back to our usual business this time around and back to Vietnam with a little detour into the Korean War along the way as Martini and Daniels find a soldier’s diary and we see his life in the army as told over the course of nearly 20 years. It’s The ‘Nam #45, “Looking Out for Number One” by Doug Murray, Wayne Vansant and Tony DeZuniga.
As always, in addition to the summary and review of the issue I’ll be taking a look at the historical context, letters and ads. Plus, I have a special announcement concerning the show’s format as well as listener feedback!

A dear friend once said to me: “It’s a lot of fun when everyone’s a dork of some sort or another.” As I look back on my life as a dork, I realize that not only have I geeked out, but not in the right way. My taste, you see, isn’t great. But instead of hiding from that, I’ve decided to embrace it. Part commentary, part memoir, this is an exploration of my weird love for the obscure and for those things that sorta suck.
