PEARL HARBOR THE COMIC BOOK #1
OUT OF PRINT. HARD TO FIND COLLECTOR'S ITEM.
On December 7th, 1941, a combined Imperial Japanese Navy air force attacked Hawaii, with devastating results. The disaster propelled and united America into total retaliation that resulted in the atomic holocausts of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And yet, most of us have only seen the tip of the iceberg on the voyage that led to Pearl Harbor. In recognition of the upcoming 60th anniversary of the event, and based on newly discovered and declassified information, Pearl Harbor: The Comic Book will present the most accurate account of these events to date, adding the lesser-known stories. Written and drawn by Luftwaffe/World War II/Kamikaze: 1946 artist Ted Nomura, whose family fought on the Japanese side, and is a serving member in the U.S. armed forces. This situation gives him the unique opportunity of a non-biased view of this important chapter in U.S. history. Part 1 covers the road that led to the destruction of the battleship USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor.
Also includes a Forward describing the background history of diplomatic and political relations between the United States and Japan that would eventually lead to Pearl Harbor.
No fictional characters will be used in this special true-to-history edition, because truth is indeed stranger than fiction!
THIS ITEM WAS ONLY AVAILABLE IN COMIC BOOK SPECIALTY SHOPS AND CANNOT BE FOUND IN ANY MASS MARKET RETAIL OUTLET.
Vivid beautifully drawn and colored by Nomura who is a master of the war genre in graphic novels. Although not a movie tie in it was published at the same time as the movie "Pearl Harbor" was released.
