Description

Tales of the Green Beret (1965-1969) was adapted into a comic strip from the 1965 novel The Green Berets by Robin Moore. Moore's story was published at a time when public opinion about the Vietnam War was still positive and real-life Green Berets were being celebrated in the media. The strip's writing was credited to Robin Moore himself, although it was ghostwritten by Jerry Capp. After two years as the artist, Joe Kubert decided to leave the strip, which was eventually adapted for comic book format, but by that time public opinion about the war no longer supported the continuation of the story.

Artwork measures 15.25" wide x 4.5" tall and is pen and ink on Bristol board. The back of the board is stamped by the engraving department of the Chicago Tribune "1966 Dec 14 PM 3 47". Signed by Joe Kubert in the third panel. Purchased from the Joe Kubert Estate.

I enjoy like how the panel of medics assisting the victims of the bridge collapse transitions into the main characters and finalizes with the solemn tone of the church bell.
