“Has become a conversation starter in the comic book industry,
which continues to awaken to more diverse ways of creating
characters both on the page and behind the scenes. The comic is by
an all-black creative team and features a predominantly black cast
of characters in the 1920s-embracing the black artistic creativity
of the Harlem Renaissance but also recognizing the racism of the
time.” -The Washington Post
“The tragedy and family drama at the heart of IMAGE COMICS' new
series BITTER ROOT may be the most traditional thing about a comic
that is, at heart, anything but traditional.” -The Hollywood
Reporter
“Puts a monstrous face on bigotry and a beautiful new spin on the
Harlem Renaissance.” -The Onion's AV Club
