MILE HIGH COMICS presents THE BEAT at COMICON.com In all the excitement, we forgot that yesterday was the biggest day in comics history as CIVIL WAR debuted, INFINITE CRISIS wrapped, and Neil Gaiman even leaked a few pages of THE ETERNALS by him, JRJR and Danny Miki. And in the four years since it began, it's gone from needing a movie to support it to comic book being interesting enough all by themselves, with countless events and local news stories leading up to the big day. The book was yanked from the county library shelves after a 16-year-old Victorville boy told his mom that the book contained sexual illustrations. www.comicon.com /thebeat   (6151 words)

BEST BOOKS OF 2003 Morning Dark by Daniel Buckman (St. Martin's; 229 pages; $22.95): The ghostly horrors of Vietnam, and other American wars, hover over ex-paratrooper Buckman's third novel, a bleak, violent book filled with old soldiers of overlapping generations, trying to defeat, ignore or exorcise demons both foreign and domestic, external and internal. A socialist, pacifist and gay, the gifted but controversial Rustin brought considerable personal baggage to his work in the peace and civil rights movements of the post-World War II era.

Amazon.com: Books: The White Guard The White Guard is less famous than Mikhail Bulgakov's comic hit, The Master and Margarita, but it is a lovely book, though completely different in tone. This is a far better novel than "Doctor Zhivago", which dealt with essentially the same subject (families torn apart by the Civil War and their way of life forever altered.) If you are at all interested in Russian history, I can't recommend "The White Guard" enough to you. While we are, as Americans, familiar with the story of the Stalinist purges and know something of post-Revolutionary Russian history, the Russian Civil War between the White and the Red is not as well-known. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0897332466?v=glance   (1393 words)

T.R. Edwards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Colonel T.R. Edwards was a mercenary during the Global Civil War that ravaged Earth prior to the crash landing of the SDF-1. In the re-booted timeline as depicted in the Wildstorm comics, Fokker meets Edwards sometime after the war and although they are not quite buddies, there is none of the intense dislike between the two from the original timeline.

When Uncle Sam is confronted by several other national symbols, however, the comic loses steam. American politics, that cynical funhouse hall of mirrors, finds twin reflections in two recent comics works: Steve Darnell and Alex Ross's Uncle Sam and Scott McCloud's The New Adventures of Abraham Lincoln. www.raintaxi.com /online/1998summer/unclesam.shtml   (835 words)

★ Reviews for Marteka,_Vincent_James This book takes the life of Vincent from childhood to death, and focuses on his integral role in the Civil War battle of Gettysburg during July of 1863. Most books about the Third Reich mention the von Stauffenberg plot (sometimes called the General's Plot) against Hitler, and a few allude to "other" plots, but Target Hitler attempts to provide a history of not only the General's Plot, but the other serious (and sometimes tragically comic) plots against Hitler. This book lists many cities and towns that were important throughout Russian history but it doesn't show on a map where they are/were located. authors.booksunderreview.com /M/Marteka,_Vincent_James/Marteka,_Vincent_James_2.html   (1269 words)
