If you know your American history, then you remember the name, Nat Turner. If you do not, then I don't want to run it all down for you and ruin the book. Obviously you can pick up just about any history book or surf the Web and find out, but why not check out this award-nominated graphic novel for the complete story? This is an official Image Comics press release:October 24th, 2007 (Berkeley, CA) - This past week YALSA announced Kyle Baker's Image Comics debut, NAT TURNER: REVOLUTION, has been nominated for their Great Graphic Novel award.
"Having NAT TURNER: REVOLUTION nominated is a true honor and shows Image is the right home for my work," said Kyle Baker. "Getting Nat Turner's story out there was a very personal goal of mine. It's great feeling to know it's so well received."
NAT TURNER: REVOLUTION concludes Baker's two-part biography of Nat Turner which originally started through his own publishing house, Kyle Baker Publishing. The library he's brought to Image includes NAT TURNER, THE BAKERS, SPECIAL FORCES and the forthcoming IMPORTANT LITERARY JOURNAL.
Image Comics Publisher Erik Larsen said, "Everyone at Image is thrilled our first collaboration with Kyle is up for such an award. I truly feel he is doing the best work of his career and we couldn't be happier to have it under the Image I."
