When I was a kid, Preacher was my favorite comic and I found this book soon after in my search for anything Garth Ennis related. I had never heard of the Unknown Soldier, nor did I know he was an old silver age character, but none of that mattered as Ennis delivered a tight, action packed, compelling spy mystery that grabs you from page one. Plunkett's art is gritty, grimy and as dirty as the C.I.A. black ops that Clyde unwittingly becomes entangled into!!
