DMZ Vol. 1: On The
Ground TP
Written by Brian Wood
Art by Wood & Riccardo Burchielli
Cover by Wood
From indie
comics icon Brian Wood (Demo, Channel Zero, Global Frequency) and
up-and-coming Italian artist Riccardo Burchielli (John Doe) comes
the first volume of DMA, colleting the first 5 issues of the series
about the ultimate embedded war journalist trapped in a most
unlikely war zone: the streets of New York City.
In the near
future, America's worst nightmare has come true. With military
adventurism overseas bogging down the Army and National Guard, the
U.S. government mistakenly neglects the very real threat of
anti-establishment militias scattered across the 50 states. Like a
sleeping giant, Middle America rises up and violently pushes its way
to the shining seas, coming to a standstill at the line in the sand
-- Manhattan or, as the world now knows it, the DMZ.
Matty Roth, a
naive young man and aspiring photojournalist, lands a dream gig
following a veteran war journalist into the heart of the DMZ. Things
soon go terribly wrong, and Matty finds himself lost and alone in a
world he's only seen on television. There, he is faced with a
choice; try to find a way off theisland, or make his career with an
assignment most journalists would kill for. But can he survive in a
war zone long enouhg to report the truth?
