Where is Lee Harvey Oswald's body?

The Kennedy assassination is a rat's nest of conspiracy theories: mafia involvement, the second gunman, government cover-up... but the most important chapter of this sordid tale may just be the theory that the body buried at Oswald's Rose Hill gravesite is not actually Lee Harvey himself.

    On the whole, "Regarding the Matter of Oswald's Body" #1 tends to feel a bit too formulaic. There's a ton of potential here. Hopefully future issues will take more chances. Read Full Review
