Extensive Vietnam flashbacks. Okay, so Vietnam was to another
generation of PI's what WWII was to Hammer. I recognize this.
I understand it. I don't even mind the occasional reference
to service. But guys, if I wanted to read a friggin' war
novel, I'd read a friggin' war novel.
Did the cliche of post-traumatic stress disorder fbs start
with Lord Peter Wimsey? He had fbs to WWI.
For Vietnam specifically, Sarge Steel gets named as the first
comic book private eye to serve in the Vietnam War in the
Fine Art of Murder by Max Allan Collins. Was he the first
known fictional private eye in any genre to serve in the
Vietnam war?
