When I think about war, I think of the fear like we see on these men's faces.

So many great covers already.I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:
Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

Out of curiosity, I was looking fro comic books that feature realistic women in the military. So far I haven't found any.

Hmmm, not sure I know of much off the top of my head but some glimmerings of areas to look at... Originally Posted by Tami

-I am not sure what the covers featured, but the Night Witches arc of Garth Ennis' Battlefields featured women fighter pilots.
-Tom Clancy's The Division Extremis Malis from Dark Horse has a woman special forces member featured
-Greg Rucka's Queen & Country might have something as well.
It's slim pickings, but that might give you a start...

You might also check some of the Will Eisner covers for PS Preventive Maintenance Monthly, not quite a comic book, but a magazine using comic illustration to good effect. Originally Posted by Tami

Toby produced a one-shot called Judy Joins the Waves in 1951, which I assume was a recruiting book. Originally Posted by Tami
