Books & more: Black Powder // Red Earth Vol. 5

It is rare for a comic to depict the present. "Black Powder // Red Earth" did that, even before the present had arrived. The scenario was prophetic: Iraq is falling apart. Many forces are at play in the struggle for dominance in the chaos. The Shia, Iran, Sunni terrorists. The solution in the graphic novel: not regular armed forces, but Private Military Contractors wage the war. Now it's happening again, "Cold Harbor" - the name of the PMC corporation that intervenes - is back in action. The problems that need to be solved are more current than ever: fighters in black masks, the Assad regime, the Iranians ... All of this in dark colors, harsh events, and a dense narrative. For those who want to delve into the world of "Black Powder // Red Earth": HERE is our Interview with BPRE creator Jon Chang. HERE is the SPARTANAT presentation of the previous volumes.
