1. Alan's War
A graphic, documentary-style account of an American airman, Alan Cope, reconstructed from interviews, diaries, photographs and sketchbooks; it tracks his enlistment, training and destructive bombing missions over Europe, the everyday rhythms of life in an English village, the close bonds and losses among crewmates, and the psychological aftereffects of combat. Rendered in spare black-and-white drawings mixed with photographs and first-person recollections, the narrative balances wry humor and intimate detail with the sudden violence and randomness of war, offering a personal, humane portrait of survival, memory and the small moments that linger after battle.
