Should We Buy a Gun?

A graphic novel about a couple, their country, and the gun debate aimed to help heal our polarized divide. Should We Buy A Gun? unites a provocative, humorous, heartfelt story with simple, evocative, enchanting drawings. Maggie & Adam are newlyweds building a life in Austin, TX. He's a NYC transplant and school counselor. She's a native Texan and NPR journalist. The like-minded pair are eager to try to start a family. But everything changes after a mugging. They're shocked to find they have opposing views on guns. Whether to buy one, try for a family, or even stay together is now in question. 11 years in the making, authored by a politically left writer and illustrated by a politically right artist, this graphic novel doesn't claim to have the answers, it only asks that we stay open-minded.
