Trickster: Native American Tales, a Graphic Collection


Description

All cultures have tales of the trickstera crafty creature or being who uses cunning to get food, steal precious possessions, or simply cause mischief. He disrupts the order of things, often humiliating others and sometimes himself. In Native American traditions, the trickster takes many forms, from coyote or rabbit to raccoon or raven. The first graphic anthology of Native American trickster tales, "Trickster" brings together Native American folklore and the world of comics.In "Trickster" more than twenty Native American tales are cleverly adapted into comic form. Each story is written by a different Native American storyteller who worked closely with a selected illustrator, a combination that gives each tale a unique and powerful voice and look. Ranging from serious and dramatic to funny and sometimes downright fiendish, these tales bring tricksters back into popular culture in a very vivid form. From an ego-driven social misstep in Coyote and the Pebbles to the hijinks of How Wildcat Caught a Turkey and the hilarity of Rabbit s Choctaw Tail Tale, "Trickster" provides entertainment for readers of all ages and backgrounds.Along with compiling and editing the book, artist Matt Dembicki illustrated one of the featured trickster tales. Dembicki is the founder of D.C. Conspiracy, a comic creators collaborative in Washington, DC, and has won acclaim for his nature graphic novel, "Mr. Big."
