The other day, I received a sampler of Boxers & Saints, the upcoming new project from award-winning graphic novelist Gene Luen Yang. The book is a story of China's Boxer Rebellion, told in two volumes and told from the parallel perspectives of two characters on opposite sides of the conflict. Here's a cool animated trailer for Boxers & Saints:
I can't wait to read the full story. Boxers & Saints will be released as two books (or one box set) on September 10. For further information on the project and other books by Gene Luen Yang, visit his official website.
