911_report_comic.jpgIf You Don't Want To See United 93, Wait For the Graphic Novel [Unbeige]
Comics icons Sid Jacobson and Ernie Colon have taken the abstract play-by-play of the "9/11 Report" and organized it into a graphic novel. The forthcoming The 9/11 Report: The Graphic Adaptation breaks down the morning in a way that can help people understand the timing of the simultaneous events.
