EAGLE: THE MAKING OF AN ASIAN-AMERICAN PRESIDENT

Writer: Kawaguchi
Artist: Kawaguchi
Genre: Drama/Politics
Volumes: 1-5
Publisher: Viz Communications
Website: www.vizcomics.com
Recommended for All Ages


Review:

Senator Kenneth Yamaoka is determined to be the first Asian-American to run for the highest office in America, the presidency. But does he have what it takes to rule a nation and more importantly, is the American people ready for an asian president?

Then who is this Takashi Jo, freshman reporter who Yamaoka handpicked to accompany him during his campaign. What is Yamaoka's agenda for picking a fresh graduate instead of a veteran reporter? Will Takashi Jo be Yamaoka's own downfall?

If you like to read a gripping story that will have you on the edge of your seat, then EAGLE is the book for you. With a nice and easy-to-follow art, a heart stopping pace and a gut-wrenching storyline, you won't believe that you're actually reading a book about politics. Not only that you get a great story but you'll also learn how a presidential election in the US operates.

The closest thing that you could compare the book to is the t.v. series The West Wing or any John Grisham/Tom Clancy book.

For those people who are hesitant to try the book because of the subject matter, PLEASE DON'T. I guarantee you that once you start reading it, you won't put the book down.

Other works:
A. Ross: Marvels (Marvel Comics), Uncle Sam (Vertigo/DC Comics), Superman:Peace on Earth (DC Comics), Earth-X (Marvel Comics)
M. Waid: Ruse (Crossgen Comics)
