Eric Griffin and Chaz Truog bring us a black and white graphic novel of the life and times of the great Apache chief, Geronimo.

Walking the war path since he was seventeen, young Goyahkla, “One Who Yawns” made his first kill among Mexicanos who called out to Saint Jerome to protect them. It was a good name, and so he adopted it as Geronimo.

At the time, the U.S. government was sending soldiers to bring the Apache people to designated reservations, but many of Geromino’s people did not want to go. Over the years, his mother, wife, and children all were killed in the conflict. His life was long and bloody, but by 1886, the noble Apache had had enough death and made an end of the Apache Wars in Skeleton Canyon with the Stone Oath, “an end of fighting until the stone crumbled into dust.”
