Petty, JT and Florido, Hilary Bloody Chester. First Second
Press, 2012. $18.99, 143 pages. Rated R across the board. Contains blood, a
little sex, lots of swears (F’s and N’s).
Bloody Chester is the nickname of the
main character in this twisted western comic. Bailed out of jail and sent to
burn a town in the way of the railroad, Chester becomes involved in a mystery
containing a strange plague, a beautiful woman, and some angry spirits. This is a great comic, but I can’t
recommend it for students. It is a mature story with enough language and
innuendo that it doesn’t belong in a school library.
HS – NOT RECOMMENDED. Reviewer: Ben
