Kings in Disguise

''Kings in Disguise'' is a six-issue comic book limited series, published in 1988 by Kitchen Sink Press. It was created by writer Jim Vance and artist Dan Burr. ''Kings in Disguise'' is a multiple Harvey and Eisner awards winner, and is considered one of the hundred best comic book stories of all time.〔Weiner, Stephen. ''The 101 Best Graphic Novels'' (NBM, 2005).〕 It has been hailed by Alan Moore, Will Eisner, Harvey Kurtzman and Art Spiegelman.〔(''Kings in Disguise'' page ), W.W. Norton website.

Set during the Great Depression, the story follows 13-year-old Freddie Bloch, a Jewish boy from the fictional town of Marian, California. When his father and brother are taken from him, Freddie takes to the rails as a hobo. He soon meets Sammy ("the King of Spain"), a sickly older hobo who takes Freddie under his wing. Together, they travel through scarred-riddled America, searching for Freddie's father. Among other places, their travels take them through Detroit during a period of labor revolt.

("James Vance is 'On the Ropes'," ) ''Comic Book Resource'' (Mar. 13, 2013).〕 After reworking it as a comic book script, he teamed up with artist Dan Burr to create the six-issue limited series published by Kitchen Sink.

It was translated into Italian in 1991 by Granata Press, and again in 2006 by Saldapress. The French publisher Vertige Graphic released a French edition in 2003.
