Further adventures in the comic book retelling of the Metis Rebellion and the story of Louis Riel. Riel leaves Montana to help the Cree and Metis tricked onto reserves and promised assistance from the federal government that never arrives. Back in Ottawa, the double-cross continues. When Riel finds out, armed rebellion looks increasingly like the only option. A fascinating tale told with wit and perspective. (Hal Niedzviecki)
