Brooms is a heartfelt graphic novel that has an earnest narrative and highly polished art. The comic’s writer, Jasmine Walls, states in her creator’s notes that she wanted to “balance historical accuracy and fantastical magic through the lens of people on the margins” (p. 232). This vision is brought to life by Teo DuVall’s art and Bex Glendining’s colours, and altogether these three authors create a book that is sweet and elegant, a real marvel of design and simplicity.
