Junkyard Joe #1 by Geoff Johns

Set amid the Vietnam War, a battle-weary U.S. squad is joined by a mute, unsettling replacement whose uncanny lethality in the jungle reveals him to be a robot soldier. The encounter scars young Muddy Davis, who later channels those memories into a hit newspaper strip even as the truth behind the figure he met—and the trauma he carries—begins to stir again in his quiet, postwar life.
