Comic book series : Black Cohosh

A heartfelt, comedic coming-of-age debut from a bright new talent. When we meet Eagle Valiant Brosi in Black Cohosh, he is a long-haired commune kid, bullied by other kids, teachers, and his neighbors. And because of his speech impediment, Eagle observes silently and often. Mom-a classic earthy, free spirit prone to discursive lectures on natural medicine and the efficacy of certain plants-is the only one who really cares. So Eagle lets others talk and talk and talk, revealing their true natures and selfish (sometimes even selfless) motivations.
