One Dead Spy

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Experience author-illustrator Nathan Hale’s New York Times bestselling graphic novel One Dead Spy: Bigger & Badder Edition in a deluxe, oversized edition featuring 16 brand-new pages of mini comics.

Nathan Hale (no relation to the author) was America’s first spy, a Revolutionary War hero who famously said, “I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country” before being hanged by the British. In Nathan Hale’s Hazardous Tales, author Hale channels his historical doppelgänger to present history’s roughest, toughest, strangest stories. This book tackles the story of Nathan Hale himself, who was an officer for the American rebels in the Revolutionary War and was eventually hanged for spying.

This special edition of One Dead Spy features a larger trim size, a deluxe package, and 16 pages of bonus material, which includes research photos, sketches, and mini comics from the author.
