Billi 99
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Billi 99 is a four issue comic series published by Dark Horse Comics in 1991, which was later reprinted in 2002. It was written by Sarah Byam and illustrated by Tim Sale. It is among Tim Sale's earliest published work.
The tag line for Billi 99, as seen in comic ads in the Fall of 1991, reads, "IT'S 1999... DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CIVIL RIGHTS ARE? BILLI 99 A PRAYER IN FOUR PARTS". The story was inspired by Byam's experiences in Detroit in the 1980's, a love of the heroic stories and pessimism over the reactionary political movements of the time.
A second collected edition has been recently reprinted and sold in English, Spanish, and Italian, and distributed throughout Europe, the U.S. and Canada.
