Alex Ross, who pencilled some of the finest comic book art in this work. His visceral, haunting illustrations complement Darnall's insightful, sometimes spine-chilling, narrative well.
Legendary letterer Todd Klein has done a great job, adapting his style to the context. The integration is so well executed Microsoft should analyse this, if for no other reason:-)
Look out for the visual easter eggs scattered throughout.
Uncle Sam was originally published as a two-parter in 1997 by DC Comics. It is now available as a single volume in hardcover and paperback formats.

Get a copy of this magnificient comic by Steve Darnall (of "Empty Love Stories" fame). A cynical and eye-opening exploration of the US of A, it takes us on a disturbing ride, from its inception on ideals of freedom and equality, to the present day where corporations have the government and the law in their hands.
Its relevance is all the more strong with the advent of lopsided laws such as the DMCA and the UCITA.
Expect to see this publication banned in the near future.
