Description

Last Day in Vietnam recounts stories Eisner heard and witnessed firsthand while in the military or while doing research for P*S magazine, which he produced for the U.S. Army as a civilian. This lead story, as the title makes clear, takes place during the Vietnam War, and the military escort here is talking to Eisner himself.

Last Day in Vietnam, unlike Eisner's other graphic novels, is drawn with ink and a grease pencil on a textured pebble board measuring 12 by 16 inches.

Winner 2001 Harvey Award for 'Best Graphic Album of Original Work'.
