August Book of the Month: “Super Indian Volume One”

Wed. 8/29 11a. From time to time we’ve all wished for a super hero to sweep in and help save the day especially when it comes to facing the trials and tribulations of Rez Life. 

To help imagine such a hero, Native entertainer and comic diva Arigon Starr of the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma presents the adventures of one reservation sensation in her debut comic series in book form, “Super Indian Volume One.” With the tag line, “Once a Rez Boy, now a super hero,” the life of Super Indian springs forward from the day he ate some tainted commodity cheese and gained his super powers. Since that unforgettable moment his adventures have helped bring another slice of Native life to the table.

Join us for an adventure as we flip through the pages of this vibrant Native graphic novel and visit with our August Book of the Month author.
