Graphic novel writer Shobo Coker and masterful artist George Kambadais captured my imagination with their five-issue series Buckhead, an African immigrant story about loss and identity that begins when she moves to a sleepy Pacific Northwest town. These issues can be difficult to address, but these two have enough imagination, cultural understanding, and human compassion that it all comes together – creating an otherworldly thriller that feels like there’s another dimension where you can disappear into.
