New In Comics: '68: Rule of War #2

New this week from Image Comics is '68: Rule of War #2.

"In the blood-soaked jungles of Cambodia, CIA Agent Declan Rule follows his son’s murderer straight into a living hell populated by the hard-wired and weaponized dead. In the skies over Vietnam a plane filled with desperate survivors sputters and coughs, burning its last drops of fuel. And deep in the Southeast Asian rainforest, a human monster hides his face behind a mask of atrocity to raise an army of the damned."

'68: Rule of War #2 was written by Mark Kidwell, illustrated by Jeff Zornow, with a cover by Nat Jones, and a variant cover by Zornow.

New In Comics: '68: Jungle Jim #1

New this week from Image Comics - '68: Jungle Jim #1 - featuring a story by Mark Kidwell and art by Jeff Zornow and Jay Fotos.​

"Vietnam, 1968: Behind enemy lines, Private Brian Curliss is alone. The enemy caged him, the dead want to devour him and the voices in his head are driving him to madness. A madness that emerges in the form of an unstoppable killing machine wrapped in burlap and bamboo... 

Curliss is a one-man-army, sworn to wade through a wet red jungle gone straight to hell in search of a ghost named Jungle Jim. To the Viet Cong, he's a nightmare. To POWs trapped in enemy hands, he's salvation. To the legions of shambling, hungry dead...He's the Grim Reaper in a gas mask.

MeatGrinder Studios and Image Comics return to the grim world of '68 with an all-new, four-issue series continuing the story of Jungle Jim. The brutal sequel to the original one-shot, Jungle Jim #1 fleshes out the new dark star of the Vietnam/Zombie apocalypse. Scripted by Mark Kidwell with savage artwork by Jeff Zornow and Jay Fotos. Covers by Jeff Zornow, Nat Jones and Jay Fotos."
