In this excerpt from a longer interview with cartoonist and historian Bentley Boyd, he talks about how he came up with his Choice Comix concept in which he does his best to replicate the vibrancy of the history that's made every single day. "I really have always wanted to put the reader in the middle," he says, "because today we are living history and we don’t know how tomorrow’s going to turn out." 

You can order Bentley’s books from his website, chestercomix.com , on Amazon, or digital versions on his app, available for iPhone and iPad.
