Synopsis


An aquatic
reef held down by an oppressive regime of blood-thirsty herons
struggles to rise up in this harrowing tale of self-discovery,
heritage, and revolution.


We
follow The Little Red Fish as they journey deep into themselves and
blossom into the leader they were meant to be. Guided by a magical
orb and the will of the people, our hero strives to help a small reef
in the Persian Gulf regain its freedom. The
Little Red Fish
is
a creative retelling of the events of the Iranian Revolution from the
perspective of those actually involved. A stunning mixture of
political allegory and magical realism, The
Little Red Fish
collects
the 6 part comic book series into one trade, including artist
features and process notes. The
Little Red Fish
vividly
captures an often-overlooked part of history, channeling folk
history, oral histories from first-hand accounts, and academic
research.
