I want to ask some questions about two of Ennis' works.
First, does anyone remember what's the title on a mini about Hitler's "lost" balls?Second, a friend read Bloody Mary yestarday, not all of it, just a few pages in the beginnig. I haven't read it, but he told me it's too much propaganda about the "good" Americans and stuff, I told him to wait till the end of it, it might change. Is it like that till the end?

I think that the mini was Adventures of the Rifle Brigade. That's the idiotic mess with the gigantic bollocks, right?

Is it like that till the end?It's like that for maybe a panel or two. then the Germans fight back, and it ends up a lot more like vietnam than WWII, except with no end to the war in sight. Also, given the portrayal of most of the Americans who are not the title character... kind of anti-American propaganda in places.

OK, my friend just read the first few pages and came to the store saying that it looked to him like propaganda. It seems I was correct saying to keep reading.
Yeah, that must be the name of the comic. I was talking about it with some friends and I thought it sounded really funny. Anyone have read it? I'm thinking of searching for it, is it Vertigo, I don't remember?

The first mini came out under the Helix imprint. I think the second one was Vertigo. They got collected in one trade, under Vertigo.
