SF Rocks!
http://www.comicbookresources.com/pr...id=809&disp=rr
Although the cover may look cool to the youngins here, here's a note about the book:
Baker's twin prongs of narrative assault in this comic have been (1) to satirize the recruitment and deployment of the mentally challenged by the military, and (2) to frame that satire within a thrilling, lascivious, gratuitous war action story. This issue focuses far more on the latter than the former. It's an all-out battle between a scantily-clad Felony (the bad-ass girl with the sassy attitude) and the forces of those-who-hate-freedom. Baker's use of the phrase "Mission Accomplished" gains hilarious potency in context.
What happened to the old school books like this one:

It appears that the run in she had with concertina that shredded most of her uniform also snagged the pistol from her now empty drop holster.

This is the guy I liked growing up. But, SF hadn't been invented in the "Big One"

Love the old comic book art depicting True Live Green Berets! 
Indeed, SF Men do rock!
Holly
p.s. No Rouge, since I am not military, and not a cartoon enhanced drawing, it's for sure not me! 
But thanks for the compliment...

Do any of you guys remember that they had a comic strip in the sunday section of the funnies called "The Green Berets"? It lasted about several years....
