great retelling submitted by camelsamba on July 8, 2015, 11:23am This graphic rendition of the Warren Commission Report is actually quite effective. They are able to use the pictures to help portray locations and actions. I like how Oswald is always a black & white sketch, in marked contrast to everything else. It's not just a synopsis, though - the team explains how social forces and the Commission itself acted together to lead to resulting conspiracy theories. I didn't know much about this, and feel much better informed for having read this book.
Clarified Details submitted by Beth Manuel on July 13, 2015, 2:21pm If you're interested in learning about all the facets of the Warren Commission report on the Kennedy Assassination, this cuts to the meat of the matter. Drawings by our own Jerzy Drozd depicted what was going on at the time.
A clarification regarding no clarity submitted by crankycrack on August 1, 2015, 10:44pm This graphic novel attempts to help the reader better understand the forces involved leading up to and emanating from the Kennedy assassination. No one theory is particularly enforced over another leading to a better understanding of what the various influences that may have lead to Kennedy's death.
