Unknown Soldier

Edition excerpt from Unknown Soldier Vol. 1: Haunted House (2009): 'UNKNOWN SOLDIER could be a new Vertigo classic.' - The Onion 'A story with teeth, unafraid to confront some horrific truths about the world we live in, Joshua Dysart's UNKNOWN SOLDIER is a comic that genuinely matters.' - Garth Ennis 'This is an immensely brave, intelligent and ruthless piece of work. You need to read it.' - Warren Ellis Welcome to Northern Uganda. In 2002, it's a place where tourists are hacked to death with machetes, 12-year-olds with AK-47s wage war, and celebrities futilely try to get people to care. Moses Lwanga is a pacifist doctor caught at the center of this. But when his life is threatened, Moses suddenly realizes he knows how to kill all too well. What is this voice telling him the only way to fix what's wrong with the country is by slaughtering those responsible? And what is Moses' connection to past bandage-wrapped warrior? HAUNTED HOUSE collects the first six issues of the Eisner Award-nominated UNKNOWN SOLDIER series - don't miss it! Advance-solicited; on sale August 26 o MATURE READERS
