Steve Walker.
Color by Oren Kramek. Letters by Chris Dickey. This gripping graphic novel takes a sci-fi-tinged look at slavery and colonial America. Graham and Brody, two young fugitive slaves, become the subjects of an experiment and gain unusual powers. Readers will respond to the complex moral quandaries raised by the story. Detailed, often dark-themed illustrations depict the action and set the historical scene.
