Secret of San Saba

In the late 1980s, Jack Jackson—a master of historical comics—brought his meticulous research to Kitchen Sink Press for Secret of San Saba, a single-issue comic that dives into the murky, often mythologized history of the legendary San Saba silver mine in Texas. Jackson, renowned for his graphic nonfiction, weaves a dense, fact-based narrative exploring the Spanish colonial era, Native American resistance, and the enduring allure of hidden treasure. Though brief, this standalone work stands as a potent example of Jackson's commitment to unearthing overlooked corners of American frontier history, blending his signature ink-heavy art with rigorous storytelling.
