Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales: Treaties, Trenches, Mud, and Blood: (A World War I Tale) (Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales)

World War I set the tone for the twentieth century and introduced a new type of warfare: Global, mechanical and brutal. Nathan Hale has gathered some of the most fascinating true-life tales from the war and given them his inimitable twist. Easy to understand, funny, informative and lively, this series is the best way to be introduced to some of the most well-known battles (and little-known secrets) of the infamous war.

I really liked this! I did start it and stop once but that has more to do with what was going on with me than the comic. It drops us in the middle of the kids searching for tech. There's no info dumping so if you're not used to rolling with new worlds and rules in SFF, then it might be hard to get into.

The kids are funny, banter like actual kids, and think likewise.
The adults are responsible, and caring.
Alpacas!
The feral girl was my second fav after the pony girl. (sorry forgot names & on tablet)
I certainly wasn't expecting what was behind the pipers and how the day was saved.
I love the dedication to his grandpa, who first told him the story.
Love the art style and tone.

After finishing, I did go check out Hale's other work. I'm not so big on history though. I'll keep an eye out if he ever does something like One Trick Pony again and pick it up.
