In Country: Marvel Comics’ “The ‘Nam” — Episode 47
We are back in The ‘Nam with this episode as I take a look at The ‘Nam #42, which is called “Inquiry” and was written by Doug Murray with art […]
Chuck Dixon fills in for regular writer Doug Murray with a tale that takes us forward in time to April 1970. “The Weight” is a collection of three separate war stories told by GIs in a bar in Saigon with art by Wayne Vansant and Geof Isherwood and a cover you heard Mr. Vansant talk about when I interviewed him in episode 14. 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.
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.
