The Broadcast

Eric Hobbs (writer) Noel Tuazon (art) On the day of the historic broadcast of The War of the Worlds by Orson Welles which triggered panic in many places it sounded so real, a family in the countryside fears for its life and also has to deal with strangers and neighbors coming in for help. The tension brings to the surface long suppressed emotions and conflicts and a violent reckoning in a dark stormy night.REVIEWS:"Hobbs provides convincing characterizations and a satisfying conclusion. Recommended."-Library Journal"Tuazon captures both the naturalism of the setting and its characters as well as the expressionistic nature of the human conflict. Thanks to Tuazon, it has a raw and visceral energy that raises the stakes for the reader."-Rob Clough, The Comics Journal@$$ie Award for Best Graphic Novel."Well-developed characters and a fascinating read."-Ain’t It Cool News"I'd encourage English and Social Studies teachers to think about using it in the classroom, perhaps for a lesson on H.G.
