Advance Praise
“A brilliantly drawn, well thought-out graphic novel whose artwork emulates WW2 propaganda posters that encouraged enlistment of young soldiers.” - The Sun UK
"Canadian teenager pays tribute to a family flying ace in his new graphic novel set during the Second World War." Canada's History Magazine
"One can quietly and patiently spend minutes soaking up each wordless landscape - like cinematic freeze-frames - allowing the imagination to build up preceding minutes of action…I recommend Johnny Recruit to people who enjoy historical action stories with something to say about fighting for family - and perhaps something more to say about our world that still lets kids fight in wars today." Lancashire Magazine
