(W) Gene Luen Yang (A/CA) Sonny Liew
In the comics boom of the 1940s, a legend was born: the Green Turtle. He solved crimes and fought injustice just like the other comics characters. But this mysterious masked crusader was hiding something more than your run-of-the-mill secret identity; the Green Turtle was the first Asian American super hero. The comic had a short run before lapsing into obscurity, but the acclaimed author of
American Born Chinese, Gene Luen Yang, has finally revived this character in
Shadow Hero, a new graphic novel that creates an origin story for the Green Turtle.
