My name is Neal Bailey. I wrote this book.
The editors never paid me what I was owed by contract for my work, and continue to republish it without my permission or a proper accounting. It's been fifteen years now that they've been exploiting the work despite my demands to have it removed, in multiple editions, across multiple formats.
The company keeps changing its name to dodge accountability for its practices, and has for decades.
When I told Amazon that the work was in breach of contract, a representative for the company told Amazon that they were honoring my contract, so Amazon keeps it up, so they continue profiting off my work.
Worse, I disavow the work, because I never had proper access to it during its creation.
I keep changing the author name to Alan Smithee, someone keeps changing it back to my name.
When I threatened legal action, the editor laughed at me over email and mocked me.
I was sent a bill for services rendered when I persisted. A BILL. For SERVICES. RENDERED.
To support this company or any of its many new names is to support thieves.
Also, the books suck because there was no communication to speak of between author and artist as they were created. So there's also that.
Save your money for better publications, reputable publishers, or even better, buy one of my other books and help make up for what these people are continuing to do with work I don't even claim.
Thanks.

Pretty good generally speaking, the author was extremely neutral and fair to all the women here and it is just a really good to see unbiased books about each of these women, generally it was good.

Bluewater Productions' Female Force by Neal Bailey, Ryan Howe, and Joshua LaBello is a compilation of stories about some of the strongest women in politics -- Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin, and Caroline Kennedy. The comic book is well drawn, with very realistic images of these figures.
The book starts off with Michelle Obama unveiling her childhood, her determination to do well in school, and her success in becoming a mother and attorney, long before meeting her future husband, Barack Obama. It was interesting to learn that she put off marrying Barack for a long while, even after her brother gave her his blessing. But the story doesn't end there; it continues through the campaign trail in Chicago and for the presidency.
Hillary Clinton's story also begins wither her past, beginning with her childhood in Chicago and moving through the presidential campaign. This pattern is followed with Sarah Palin as well.
These comics will help young readers and older readers get a better grasp on these women and the role they play in politics today. The illustrations are vivid and detailed, resembling each political figure accurately. Readers interested in a bit of sarcasm and another point of view of politics will enjoy these stories, and young women can look to them for inspiration.
