Excellent follow up - I’m so glad I can read these back to back. Excellent historical context and insight while also telling a current story that is full of heart.

[I was sent a copy of this comic on Netgalley in return for an honest review.]

'Northwest Resistance' is the third volume in the graphic novel series, 'A Girl called Echo'. It follows the main character (Echo) as she explores her heritage and the history behind The Settlers and the Canadian government.

Despite being only a short read, the comic is extremely well written and presents the story in both a captivating and interesting manner. We explore the history directly alongside the main character, and are given a more in depth understanding of how things may have turned out the way that they did.

I thought the artwork was beautiful and did a great job of conveying Echo's emotions, along with the story as a whole. The comic is perfect for both young and old readers as it is rather straight forward and easy to understand.

Overall, I thought the comic was very informative and I would definitely be interested to read the 4th volume when it comes out!

Rating: 3.5/5
