Pride of Baghdad

[Spartanguy88]

I read this several weeks ago and I have to say, it's really thought provoking.



In 2003, during the bombing of Baghdad, Iraq, four lions escaped from a local zoo. The starving animals were eventually shot and killed by U.S. soldiers several weeks later.

This graphic novel is based off of that event.

Comment on it here.

I like the play on words here. Personally, I think that's one of the few great cues that makes a REALLY good story.

I'll definitely read this one day. Looks cool.

And get this:

One of the lions in this story is a cub named Ali.
