Synopsis-Moonshot: The Indigenous Comics Collection, edited by Hope Nicholson, is a groundbreaking anthology that showcases the work of Indigenous writers and artists from across North America. The collection brings together a diverse range of comic stories inspired by Indigenous cultures, histories, traditions, and contemporary experiences, providing a platform for Native voices that have often been underrepresented in mainstream comics. The anthology features stories spanning multiple genres, including science fiction, fantasy, adventure, horror, historical fiction, and traditional folklore. Some tales draw upon ancestral legends and spiritual traditions, while others explore modern Indigenous life, addressing themes such as identity, resilience, environmental stewardship, family, and cultural survival. The result is a rich and varied collection that demonstrates the breadth and creativity of Indigenous storytelling. A central goal of Moonshot is to challenge stereotypes and present authentic perspectives from Indigenous creators themselves. Each story reflects unique tribal backgrounds and viewpoints, highlighting the diversity of Indigenous communities rather than treating them as a single culture. The accompanying artwork ranges from realistic to highly stylized, contributing to the anthology's visual and narrative richness. Both entertaining and educational, Moonshot serves as an introduction to Indigenous literature and graphic storytelling while celebrating the talents of Native creators. The collection has been praised for expanding representation in comics and for offering readers compelling stories that connect cultural traditions with contemporary themes. It stands as an important contribution to modern graphic literature and Indigenous arts.…

With the aid of her brother Tanero, a demigod cursed to appear in the form of a great dane in the presence of Kablunets (white men), and her loyal sidekick the mountie Corporal Keele, Nelvana fought the forces of evil for six years before her adventures came to an end in 1947.".…
