    A Vietnam vet is the only surviving member of his platoon.  Twenty years after the war is over, he survived a car crash, a coma, and now Lazarus Jones has been transported to a universe reminiscent of a Moorcock novel.  Naturally, his old platoon buddies are there, and they're fighting the forces of darkness.  There's magic, aliens, and Leonardo Da Vinci has a supporting role.
