Very nice copy of the limited issue of the first printing that has a tipped in signed and numbered print titled "Why Louis Riel's Parents Got Married". It is unclear if each copy contained the same print or if there is some variation. Book is so very nearly fine, with just some rubbing to corners and one good bump at foot of spine, promotional band issued is present and without damage, but transfer from rubbing can be noticed in a few spots. Quarto, printed cloth covers, promotional slip wrap, 272 pages. Satisfaction guaranteed. Additional photos always available on request. Shipped in a fitted, padded box.

Is this the future of comics? Respectably penning the dowdy pages of history? Don't be fooled. This is one of the hippest comics going and will be a controversial must-have in 2003. Legendary cartoonist Chester Brown reveals in the dusty closet of Canadian history there are some skeletons that won't stop rattling. To some Louis Riel was one of the founding fathers of a nation but to others he was a murderer who nearly tore a country apart. A man so charismatic he was elected to government twice while in exile with a prize on his head--but so impassioned his dramatic behavior cast serious doubts on his sanity. Riel took on the army, the government, the Queen, and even the Church in the name of freedom. Will Riel's visionary democracy ever be enough to defend him from the verdict of history?
