Rib

Written by Andrew M. Ford, Illustrated by Michael Kelleher

The critically-acclaimed series made its Caliber debut in a special 40-page giant! This extra-large issue also contains the hard-to-find original self-published #1, as well as 20 more pages of completely new material. An excellent jumping on place for new readers! Rib is the story of a worm searching for the truth about his people's past, in a human society that is all but against him. It's also about one's true identity and place in a world overcome with prejudice and hate. Six issues in total were released.

See why Ford's work on this series has been called "genius" and why Rib has been praised by the press. Christopher Woodward of Overstreet Fan wrote, "Resonant with echoes of historical oppression and references to every-day questions or morality, it's no wonder Rib has mentioned in the same breath as Art Spiegelman's landmark Maus. " Tony Isabella of the Comics Buyer's Guide said that "Rib is an ambitious tale of prejudice. His story just captures your attention." Ian M. Feller of Combo wrote, "Ford's parallel of the worms and America's minorities, while intentional, is genius."
