--American Nightmare Cody, professional wrestler, Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro-Wrestling "I hate wrestling. I'm just not a fan... but this book chiseled through the hardened outer shell of my cold black heart and reminded me of how much I loved wrestling in my youth.

"The story of professional wrestling in the United States over the last fifty years is nearly convoluted beyond comprehension. So, of course, Aubrey Sitterson decided to cover the origins and history of professional wrestling across three continents. And not only have he and Chris Moreno made it comprehendible, they've made it as highly entertaining and visually exciting as the One True Sport itself." --Excalibur, co-founder of Pro Wrestling Guerilla

I can't recommend it enough!" --Ed McGuinness, artist for Marvel Comics and DC Comics

"What if Ken Burns cut a promo? The Comic Book Story of Professional Wrestling is the engaging answer, bursting forth with a detailed, passionate look at pro wrestling's over-a-century of history, with tensed, collar-and-elbow intimacy.
