  • The startlingly original look at life on the streets of Baghdad during the
    Iraq War inspired by true events arrives in a stunning new hardcover edition. In
    this provocative graphic novel, superstar comics writer Brian K. Vaughan
    examines life on the streets of war-torn Iraq. In the spring of 2003, a pride of
    lions escaped from the Baghdad Zoo during an American bombing raid. Lost and
    confused, hungry but finally free, the four lions roamed the decimated streets
    of Baghdad in a desperate struggle for their lives. In documenting the plight of
    the lions, Pride of Baghdad raises questions about the true meaning of
    liberation: Can it be given, or is it earned only through self-determination and
    sacrifice? And in the end, is it truly better to die free than to live life in
    captivity?
  • This new Deluxe Edition hardcover presents the original graphic novel, plus
