    <body><![CDATA[Graphic Novel. Contains the Iraq war, terrorism, hysteria, religion, shrinking civil liberties, and hate crime. You may find the contents triggering, exploitive, or both. I could have got that anywhere; I don't see how the story was changed much by adding a guy like Hundred to the mix. Even the art ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/47664274">more...</a>]]></body>
