I thought the art was great and the action solid, but the story was to clipped, and there's a preachy, tryhard quality to it, in terms of the simplistic way it too-easily vilifies its "close to real life" targets. Ever see those liberal productions that make you roll your eyes at the barely-changed parodies of Trump or Musk? Yeah, this feels like that, just for our side.

I didn’t find it preachy, though there were a couple times I thought, “Hey, we’re not allowed to say that!”

Agreed that the story did feel clipped. Like the editor may have cut it a bit too zealously for some sort of maximum length requirement.

No no no! That's just the first issue split into three floppies! The new Pvt American is 72 pages of brand new material. Richard's working on it now.

Ah, OK. Glad I didn’t miss it.

Thanks, Henry! Pvt. American 2 is tighter!

Shame on me, Mike, but I only recently discovered there was a 2 & 3. Looks like the crowdfunds are done. Are they still available on your website?
