The 9/11 Report for Every American On December 5, 2005, the 9/11 Commission issued its final report card on the government's fulfillment of the recommendations issued in July 2004: one A, twelve Bs, nine Cs, twelve Ds, three Fs, and four incompletes. Here is stunning evidence that Sid Jacobson and Ernie Colon, with more than sixty years of experience in the comic-book industry between them, were right: far, far too few Americans have read, grasped, and demanded action on the Commission's investigation into the events of that tragic day and the lessons America must learn. Using every skill and storytelling method Jacobson and Colon have learned over the decades, they have produced the most accessible version of the 9/11 Report. Jacobson's text frequently follows word for word the original report, faithfully captures its investigative thoroughness, and covers its entire scope, even including the Commission's final report card. Colon's stunning artwork powerfully conveys the facts, insights, and urgency of the original. Published on the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States, an event that has left no aspect of American foreign or domestic policy untouched, "The 9/11 Report "puts at every American's fingertips the most defining event of the century.

It may seem a little odd that someone thought it was a good idea to adapt "The 9/11 Report" into a graphic novel. After all, many images from that day are burned into our nation's consciousness already, so who wants to see it illustrated? I must say, however, that this project was a marvelous idea, because it makes the report much more accessible. Keeping names and timelines straight can get really confusing when all you have is black and white text, and this is where the advantage of the graphic adaptation comes in. Really the book is one big visual aid. Having read this and understood it, I may very well take a crack at the text version.
