Shanghai Red

by Christopher Sebela, Joshua Hixson (Artist)

Overview

Red is one of hundreds of people who were shanghaied out of Portland in the late 1800s. Drugged, kidnapped and sold to a ship’s captain for $50, she wakes up on a boat headed out to sea for years, unable to escape or even reveal who she truly is. Now she’s coming back in a boat covered in blood to find her family and track down the men responsible for stealing her life out from under her.

Eisner-nominated writer CHRISTOPHER SEBELA (HIGH CRIMES, HEARTTHROB, WE(L)COME BACK), JOSHUA HIXSON (THE BLACK WOODS) and HASSAN OTSMANE-ELHAOU (FELIX & MACABBER) bring you a tale of revenge, family and identity that stretches from the deck of a ship outside Shanghai all the way to the bleak streets and secret tunnels beneath Portland, Oregon.
