“That is the significant part of telling our own stories: by doing so, we demonstrate our cultural continuance.”

Moonshot: The Indigenous Comics Collection Volumes 1-3 by Hope Nicholson, Elizabeth LaPensee, and Michael Sheyahshe, editors

July 30, 2021 by ElCicco 1 Comment

Cbr13bingo rep That quote in the title of these reviews comes from Michael Sheyahshe’s introduction to Moonshot: Volume 1 and it serves as a rallying cry for all three volumes. The Moonshot series, published in 2015, 2017 and 2019, is, as the title says, a collection of comics written and drawn by Indigenous writers and artists.
