Red Scare: A Graphic Novel

"If you dropped a TinTin comic in a vat of 1950s paranoia, you might end up with something similar to Liam Francis Walsh’s evocative, noir-inspired comic. Peggy is still recovering from polio, frustrated that her muscles won’t let her keep up with her brother. When a mysterious object of otherworldly origin gives her the ability to not just walk but fly, she little suspects she’ll end up in the sights of two unscrupulous FBI agents. Magnificent noir shading and a smart critique of fear-mongering elevate the action and excitement of this historical dip into the possible. (For ages 8 to 12)"
