2010 Maverick Award winner
2011 Aesop Prize Winner—Children’s folklore section
2011 Eisner Award Nominee
All cultures have tales of the trickster—a crafty creature or being who uses cunning to get food, steal precious possessions, or simply cause mischief. He disrupts the order of things, often humiliating others and sometimes himself.
In Native American traditions, the trickster takes many forms, from coyote or rabbit to raccoon or raven. This beautiful anniversary edition graphic anthology of Native American trickster tales brings together Native American folklore and the world of comics. In Trickster, 24 Native storytellers were paired with 24 comic artists, telling cultural tales from across America.
Ranging from serious and dramatic to funny and sometimes downright fiendish, these tales bring tricksters back into popular culture.
