This is one of those books that a saw the name on the cover Frank Miller and Dave Gibbons and it was instant "I must buy that". I had enjoyed there other work separately, but together I thought that it would be excellent and I was correct.
Again they have set this in the America of the future where the country is at war with itself and other countries. The story is set around Martha Washington a coloured girl who joins PAX the American Peace Force. This is unlike the Peace forces of today as this is heavily armed and does America’s dirty work around the World (OK maybe not so different).
The story is about her struggle to improve herself from when she was a young girl in the ghetto of her time. Through fighting a war in a foreign country and almost killing one of her Captains (an evil guy) and the problems that he causes for her. Will she win out in the end? Well read it and see.
The artwork is first class and with a story to match well worth the read. It can be found published either by Dark Horse or Penguin.
