The article examines war comics containing biographical narratives of people who experienced war trauma. Three publications provided the material for the analysis. These are, namely, Maus by Art Spiegelman, Yossel by Joe Kubert and Footnotes in Gaza by Joe Sacco. Despite the fact that each one of them describes war differently, they all attempt to depict it from the viewpoint of ordinary people, witnesses and victims of terror. The author starts with the analysis of the characteristics of the discussed publications, especially in their biographical aspect. This is followed by the formulation of a theoretical – analytical reference framework using the interpretative sociology method, whilst the main body of the text is a reconstruction of the biographical narratives of the main characters. Conclusions on the narrative strategies characteristics used by terror witnesses and suggestions for further work are included in the summary.
