4.0

A graphic telling of popular uprisings in Cincinnati in 2001 in the wake of the police murder of a young black man that followed several police shootings. There are some nice graphic elements: the particulars of Timothy Thomas' story are captured in a nine frame motif that is revealed out of order over the course of the week that is depicted in the book; Moore places himself as the narrator while also giving voice to several others who were there by devoting several frames or even pages to their first person stories - he captures a range of perspectives this way.
