This volume collects issues #29-34, the election storyline from last year.  It’s good, but don’t take my word for it… how about Greg Palast’s?  He’s the investigative journalist who, among many other things, single-handedly exposed the 2000 and 2004 voter fraud in Florida and Ohio.  Here’s a scan of his introduction.

DMZ 4
21/01/2009
DC Comics
Un quatrième album pour la série de Brian Wood, un brillant auteur, illustrateur et designer graphique qui a longtemps travaillé dans l’industrie du jeu vidéo (GTA, Max Payne…). À ses côtés, le très prometteur Riccardo Burchielli (John Doe). Le jeune journaliste Matty Roth, correspondant à New York, zone démilitarisée en proie au chaos dans la guerre civile qui ravage l’Amérique, procède à contre cœur à l’interview d’un soldat responsable d’un massacre à l’intérieur de la ville. Il apprend aussi comment New York est devenue ce qu’elle est, à travers le regard d’un enfant qui a quitté le Midwest pour se retrouver en plein cauchemar. Une série qui envisage le futur pour mieux s’interroger sur le présent.
Format : 170 x 260, 128 pages couleur.

DMZ #41
Written by Brian Wood
Art by Nikki Cook
Cover by John Paul Leon
Having rejected the relative safety and stability of Parco Delgado’s government enclave (as well as a relationship with Matty Roth), Zee ventures out into the wilds of the DMZ. What is she seeking? Peace of mind? A greater truth? Or does she see Parco for what he truly is and would rather be alone and drifting than a part of it?
On sale April 15

Willow Wilson, Jock, Cliff Chiang, David Lapham, and Will Dennis.

WHAT WORK FROM 2008 ARE YOU THE MOST PROUD OF?

Brian Wood: LOCAL. The best thing I’ve done, and hopefully the first of many Ryan Kelly collabs. And the first NORTHLANDERS book, which not only got me out of my comfort zone but did the same for a lot of people who thought they knew what a comic book about Vikings was.

WHAT WORK ARE YOU THE MOST EXCITED ABOUT FOR 2009?

Brian Wood: A few upcoming NORTHLANDERS one-shots should be excellent, if only for the artists we have lined up coughRissocough. Seeing how the new DEMO books come out, and writing issue #50 of DMZ. 50! Reaching fifty issues of a series is sort of like when I hit 30 years of age. I never thought I’d make it that long.

WHAT’S YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION?

Brian Wood: I don’t make them. Each year, each week, each day I just try to make forward momentum, and improve in everything if only a little bit.
