A review by squidbag
Cimarronin: The Complete Graphic Novel by Ellis Amdur, Neal Stephenson, Mark Teppo, Robert Sammelin, Charles C. Mann, Dean Kotz

4.0

This was great; it reminded me initially of the alt-fic histories in Savage Tales, Marvel's black-and-white, two-fisted adventure magazine from the 80s. The characters are at home with how expendable they are in the grand scheme of things, and the larger events unfolding tip on the lever points of seemingly minor players. In truth, there are no minor players. Pretty much the richness and brutality one would expect from a GN about a disgraced samurai (the ronin of the title) living in alternate reality Spain. Graphically detailed, but comfortably read on my Kindle, and dense with personality.
