Reviews

“This is a wonderful book about comics, coming-of-age, and racialized identities as they intersect with other aspects of identity such as poverty, refugee status, or LGBTQIA2S+ identities. The author examines how difference enriches and complicates the coming-of-age narrative and how complex the journey to adulthood can be through an examination of a richly diverse group of YA comics.”—Marni Stanley, Vancouver Island University
