Paperback Edition: 1
On the fiftieth anniversary of Che's death a new edition of the bestselling graphic biography. Since his murder 50 years ago in Bolivia, Ernesto 'Che' Guevara has become a universally known revolutionary icon and political figure whose image is among the most recognizable in the
