Bought this in Books on iPad because I absolutely loved Prince of Persia on my old 20 MHz 386. Only 1/5 or so in to it, it’s clear that for me that this is the most impactful comic I’ve read since the 1986 The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller, which at the time completely changed how I looked at comics. Absolutely love this format of storytelling. ❤️

Hi, I'm Jordan Mechner, creator of Prince of Persia. I've written and drawn a nonfiction graphic novel, "Replay."It's a memoir of my four decades making games, interwoven with three generations of my family's back story.
(And yes, it has the bit where I videotape my brother in our NY high school parking lot in 1985.)Check it out (links, reviews, and excerpts) at https://jordanmechner.com/en/books/replay
