Super Sikh #2 par Eileen Kaur Alden
Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
I was already in the middle of eight books when I spied this at the library, but not only did I check it out anyway but I also spurned them all to immediately devour this one when I got home.
This was delightful. As filled with earnest wholesomeness as you would expect from a title with that tagline, but also a surprising amount of goofiness (Princess Bride quotes, sight gags, etc.) that kept me laughing out loud. Some gentle Sikh education/proselytizing, as well as some commentary on profiling/xenophobia that doesn't get too heavy handed. This slim little book manages to fit in plenty of tropes, gags, character introductions, culture introductions and still execute a tight plot. An admirable feat.
I hope there is more of this coming.… (plus d'informations)

I can see that the creators were trying to hit that campy Roger Moore-era James Bond vibe, but this secret agent send-up was just not any fun at all. And while I thought it would at least be a cool way to learn more about Sikhism, I find myself just as ignorant as when I started.
My takeaway on Sikhs from this comic: We wear turbans, but we're not terrorists, though we get accused of that a lot, and that sucks.
