DMZ

DMZ by Brian Wood and Riccardo Burchielli is a gripping read set in the not to distant future.
Militias within the USA have declared war on the American Government, calling themselves the Free States. The two armies are sqaured of with the Free States army in New Jersey, and the United States army is massed in Brooklyn. This means that Manhatten has become the 'DMZ' in the middle.
Journalist Matty Roth finds himself as the only person in the DMZ with the ability to tell the real story of the DMZ, and this is where this amazing graphic novel begins. Wood has a fantastic storytelling style that brings his characters to life, while Burchielli's art is perfectly suited to the story.
Find a copy and jump in, but remember to keep your press pass with you at all times it could save your life.
