As a kid, Kyle Baker was obsessed with comic books and built a career in kids’ animation working on shows like Looney Toons and Rugrats. Baker’s new book, Nat Turner, is the furthest thing from kid stuff. It’s a graphic retelling of the violent 1831 slave rebellion in Virginia. Drawn in black and white and shades of grey, Baker depicts the historic revolt with a vivid, pulpy intensity. Baker tells Kurt how he ended up telling this story.
