I am awed and amazed byPantomime! As aforementioned, I was slightly skeptical at how a reader would be able to read American Sign Language. However,Pantomimedelivers! This comic permeates into both the hearing and D/deaf worlds. Neither community is left out"which also appears as one of the many themes inPantomime. The same goes for readers; one does not need to know ASL to enjoy this comic! Teen to adult readers are in for great pleasure in reading this one! Read Full Review
