A brilliant way to marry the worlds of historical fiction writing and comic book art to tell a story of hope and heartbreak. With amazing art style, fantastic coloring, Lockard & Fish tell the initiate story of a couple falling in love in a time where world history stood at the precipice of disaster. While the story may have been a fictional one, Lockard & Fish were able to pack a punch about a humanitarian devastation to a less discussed marginalized group. They were able to remind us that we must hold our history close to our hearts to remember the past, appreciate the strides made in our present, but to do our best to prevent such humanitarian disasters from happening again. This short story comic left me both heartbroken but hope which is more than I could ask for from any writing.
