Pride of Baghdad

Studio 360 | Jan 11, 2011

Brian K. Vaughan is one of the most interesting graphic novelists working today. In his series Y: The Last Man he depicts an apocalyptic future in which the male half of humanity has been wiped out, with one man surviving in a world populated only by women. In his new graphic novel, The Pride of Baghdad, he tells the story of a family of lions that escapes the Baghdad zoo during the American invasion.
