Be The People is the first in a series of EVERYMAN graphic novels about the rise to power of a new force in American politics, a movement called OneLove. Originally founded as a push for common decency in politics and social policy, the OneLove platform takes on a new life as its founders uncover hard evidence of intent to tamper with the electronic voting machines used in the 2004 general election and ensure that the incumbent President Henry R. Birch stays in office at any cost. Be The People follows OneLove's attempts to rally the American people and take back the White House from those who would hijack its authority for their own ends.
