Part of Series
One of Vertigo’s longest-running series comes to its stunning conclusion. After six years, Matty Roth's story and the Second American Civil War comes to an end. As the war enters its final weeks, Matty is given an unbelievable second chance, a golden opportunity to report once again from the DMZ-not as a network lackey but as an unbiased observer for the court of world opinion, to ensure both sides stay honest. He is given total access, total freedom, and is determined to do right by the city where he once failed miserably. Brian Wood and artist Riccardo Burchielli present their final chapter and remove any doubt that DMZ is, at its core, a love letter to New York City. DMZ: THE DELUXE EDITION BOOK FIVE collects issues #60-72.
