It's 1930s Mississippi. Magic is permitted only in certain
circumstances, and by certain people. Unsanctioned broom racing is
banned. But for those who need the money, or the thrills...it's
there to be found. Meet Billie Mae, captain of the Night Storms
racing team, and Loretta, her best friend and second-in-command.
They're determined to make enough money to move out west to a state
that allows Black folks to legally use magic and take part in
national races. Cheng-Kwan - doing her best to handle the delicate
and dangerous double act of being the perfect "son" to her parents,
and being true to herself while racing. Mattie and Emma -- Choctaw
and Black -- the youngest of the group and trying to dodge
government officials who want to send them and their newly-surfaced
powers away to boarding school. And Luella, in love with Billie
Mae. Her powers were sealed away years ago after she fought back
against the government. She'll do anything to prevent the same fate
for her cousins. Brooms is a queer, witchy Fast and the Furious
that shines light on history not often told - it's everything you'd
ever want to read in a graphic novel.
