Default 911 report comic book?

Maybe they should have tried to compete with spiderman earlier on to reach a broader audience.
-or maybe the govt felt the story just wasnt played out enough already.
-have the leaflet bombs reached your place yet?
who's kidding who here?

Its not a comic book,its a Graphic Novel.Outside of North America,Graphic Novels are wildly popular.And their audience is not children,but adults.
One of the most compeling books on the Reagan/Contra/Iran boondoggle is a graphic novel called Brought to Light,written by Alan Moore,who went on to write graphic novels adapted to film starring Johnny Depp(From Hell)and Sean Connery(League of Extraordinary Gentlemen)and whose graphic novel The Watchmen won the award for best Sci-Fi novel in 1988.
Its not a comic,and its not geared towards kids.
Have you heard of Maus,a graphic novel about the Holocaust? Or the unbelievable -In the Shadows of No Towers?,a graphic novel about trying to adjust to life post-9/11 in lower Manhatten.

A comic book, by any other name... Yes, Brought to Light, I have it. I want to see something like that, exposing the 911 MYTH in "graphic novela" form. Something I can distribute to kids and grown-up kids alike. zg
