The work they did together brings the gritty realism and psychological truth of Stephen Crane and a verisimilitude to the page that it seems as if they are reporting from the scene. Together with inker and friend Will Elder, whose own obsession for detail perfectly complemented the impact they were all striving to achieve, they produced 34 emotionally draining -- and dramatically eloquent -- war stories in just under three years. This book collects them all. Settings include: the Roman empire; the Revolutionary War; the American-Indian Wars; the Alamo; the Civil War; World War I (in the trenches and in the air); World War I (in the Pacific and in Europe, including the D-Day invasion); and the Korean War.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49733813534993,"sku":"NGR9781606997499","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51372345590033,"sku":"GOR006490371","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53078166438161,"sku":"GOR008036807","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53335264559377,"sku":"CIN1606997491G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1606997491.jpg?v=1781172705"},{"product_id":"chicken-fat-book-will-elder-9781560977049","title":"Chicken Fat","description":"This companion volume to Will Elder: the Mad Playboy of Art peers into the gray matter of one of comics' most fertile and wide-ranging imaginations. Elder coined the term 'chicken fat' to describe the myriad background gags crammed into his stories for MAD, Panic, Humbug, Goodman Beaver and Little Annie Fanny. It's the part of the soup that's bad for you, yet gives the delicious flavour', he once explained.
