Riassunto

One of the YALSA Top Ten Graphic Novels for Teens from 2016!

America’s first teenaged president is on the job in this contemporary twist on a DC classic!

Oregon teen Beth Ross has just been elected President of the United States of America. Age restrictions were abolished when corporations gained the right to run for office and voting booths have been replaced by Twitter, making just about anyone eligible for the nation’s top job, including the viral-video-famous Corndog Girl!

Now the eyes of the nation are on Beth. But in a world so out of control that the poor are willing to shoot themselves on TV for a chance at a better life, will even the new president have the power needed to overthrow the nation’s true leaders—Boss Smiley and his corporate shadow government?

Writer Mark Russell (God Is Disappointed in You) teams with artists Ben Caldwell (JUSTICE LEAGUE BEYOND) and Mark Morales (X-Force, Secret Invasion) to revive and reinvent a classic! Collects PREZ #1-6 and SNEAK PEEK: PREZ #1.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

Praise for Mark Russell's GOD IS DISAPPOINTED IN YOU:
"As soon as I started reading it, I was hooked... The Bible is an incredibly weird book, and I thank Mark Russell for rewriting it in a way that made it understandable and interesting." --Boing Boing

"Very sharp political commentary." - Mike Roe from Off-Ramp on National Public Radio

"It's just perfect. It's better than perfect; it's now. What Russell and Caldwell have created is the impossible, unlikely, and interminable now; the world as it is, hyperrealized in the kind of tomorrow we dare not believe, yet secretly fear will come." - PopMatters

"Prez has become a standout title with its sharp political commentary, bold sense of humor, and intricate world building in both the writing and art. "- --A.V. Club/The Onion
