Journalism

by Joe Sacco
Metropolitan: Holt. Feb. 2012. 176p. ISBN 9780805094862. $24. CURRENT EVENTS/GRAPHIC NOVELS
COPY ISBN
A standout in comics journalism (you'll remember Eisner Award winners Footnotes in Gaza and Safe Area Gorazde), Sacco turns his hand to the short form in sobering accounts that range from the trial of Bosnian warlord Milan Kovacevic to Abu Ghraib. Previously unpublished pieces address Sacco's time with troops in Iraq. Should be classic.
