Coffee and a Comic Blog

Today's Coffee ☕ and a Comic 📓 is The 'Nam #30 "Bunker Line" Cover Date: May 1989 July 1968. The war drags on, but for the men of the 23rd Infantry, the fight comes to them. A new officer, Lt. Biggs, arrives at the base, eager to prove himself. But the front lines aren't in the jungle, they're in the bunkers, where every shadow hides a threat. As Biggs joins the men on the line, the tension is palpable. A false alarm? Maybe. But in Vietnam, there's no such thing as safe. This issue delves into the psychological strain of constant vigilance, the fine line between caution and paranoia, and the bonds forged in the crucible of war.

Today's Coffee ☕ and a Comic 📓 is The 'Nam #29 "War and 'Peace'" Cover Date: April 1989 As the Paris Peace Talks begin in June 1968, diplomacy takes center stage, but in-country, the war is far from over. This issue juxtaposes sterile negotiations with the grim reality on the ground, where troops still patrol, bleed, and die. The brass may argue across polished tables, but the average grunt? He just wants to make it home.
