Horrible but true
Flesh of White is a fictionalized story of a very real and horrible problem in Africa. In this first of four issues, we meet loving mother Rehema and her baby boy Kwasi. Kwasi was born with albinism and has become the target of a witch doctor who wants to use his body... pieces of it... for his spells.
Amanda Rachels' art is gruesome and beautiful, giving the characters depth to the point where you clearly see the love or the malice, whether you read writer Erica J. Heflin's words or not, but you don't want to miss Heflin's storytelling, either. This is a horror story you really don't want to miss.
But beyond this being a supernatural sort of horror story, it's also an eye-opening exposure to the plight of Africans with albinism. The health risks are significant by themselves, but in this region of Tanzania (where the story is set), these "ghosts" are hunted. Many people don't understand what albinism is, and often see those afflicted with it as less than human. Flesh of White goes a long way to humanizing the problem.
