"Shooting War" may be anti-war
Looking at this article from the Honolulu Star Bulletin, I see they bring up two small graphic novel publications, at least one that suggests anti-war sentiments:
"Shooting War" (Grand Central Publishing, $21.99) takes place in the here and soon-now, a crazy melange of Iraq-aphobia and razor-sharp slashing at media culture. It concerns a video blogger who, through sheer luck -- or un-luck -- is co-opted by a network news organization and placed on the front line in the Middle East. Things don't go well. It's hard to imagine they ever will over there.Of course they don't go well, but that doesn't mean we should let evil flourish! That's why we have to police Iraq to put a stop to the evil of al Qaeda. So if this book turns out to be an anti-war piece, that will be quite disappointing.
