The Unknown Soldier #14 (Ongoing)

is an ongoing comic book series from Vertigo, set in Uganda, written by Joshua Dysart, with art by Alberto Ponticelli. It began publication in October 2008. It is the third series run for the Unknown Soldier character, a symbol for all the nameless soldiers who have fought in all of the wars of the United States of America. It has been gaining praise, one of which comes from Garth Ennis, who incidentally wrote a four-issue mini-series with the same title also under the Vertigo imprint, featuring art by Kilian Plunkett, a much darker portrayal which the current ongoing series has followed: "...A story with teeth, unafraid to confront some horrific truths about the world we live in." It was nominated for an Eisner Award for Best New Series. Issue #14 concludes the two-story arc, "The Way Home."

With the most intense patch of war zone behind him, Moses surrenders himself to an ancient Acholi ritual in hopes of chasing away the ghosts of those he's killed. But will the ceremony cause him to lose more than just his inner demons? Featuring art by Congolese artist Pat Masioni! MATURE READERS. --
