Reviews for Red Tag

"""Scavone, Albuquerque and Cruz craft a gripping tale of youth taking power from a corrupt system.""—Rick Remender ""De forma muito hábil e envolvente, Risco nos faz pensar em quanto o passado tenebroso da ditadura militar ainda está entranhado no cotidiano e afeta diretamente a sobrevivência nas periferias.""—Ale Santos (O Último Ancestral)"
