SLJ Review: “…One of comics journalism’s best.”

“With a palette of mostly cool or ashy watercolors, the red heat of the destruction abruptly and noticeably pops off the page. Varied panel layouts capture the frenetic pace of the emergency, while spreads offer powerful moments of pause. Detailed back matter includes an afterword, sobering statistics, source notes, and an extensive bibliography. Most of the subjects featured in the book are white. ­VERDICT A succinct and impactful look at one of America’s worst tragedies, skillfully rendered by one of comics journalism’s best.
