“Marine sergeant Jack Brennan’s platoon is on the way home from a grueling deployment to Afghanistan. It’s not the first time through this cycle for Brennan and a couple others, but this time, “He wants to tell us a story,” as one man gripes, before they go home—several stories, actually, from the greatest saga of a soldier going home, The Odyssey… Like a sergeant himself, writer Doerries makes a platoon of artists fall into a consistent style—a kind of stripped-down Swamp Thing look—in both Homeric and contemporary scenes to keep this exercise in comics-as-therapy compelling.”
—Ray Olson, Booklist
