HOME TIME HC

(W) Campbell Whyte (A) Campbell Whyte (CA) Campbell Whyte

The last school bell has rung and it's finally HOME TIME! Even though they're twins, Lilly and David don't agree on much... except that the last summer before high school is the perfect time for relaxing with friends. But their plans for sleepovers, fantasy games, and romance are thrown out the window when the whole gang falls into a river and wakes up in a village of fantastic creatures. Hailed as magical spirits and attacked by lizards, these kids must find their way home - if they don't throttle each other first. Australian cartoonist Campbell Whyte combines the rich imagination of Dungeons & Dragons with puckishly charming characters and a touch of video-game geometry in his spectacular first graphic novel.

IMAGINE WANTING ONLY THIS GN

(W) Kristen Radtke (A) Kristen Radtke (CA) Kristen Radtke

A gorgeous graphic memoir about loss, love, and confronting grief. When Kristen Radtke was in college, the sudden death of a beloved uncle and the sight of an abandoned mining town after his funeral marked the beginning moments of a lifelong fascination with ruins and with people and places left behind. Over time, this fascination deepened until it triggered a journey around the world in search of ruined places. She leads us through deserted cities in the American Midwest, an Icelandic town buried in volcanic ash, islands in the Philippines, New York City, and the delicate passageways of the human heart. Along the way, we learn about her family and a rare genetic heart disease that has been passed down through generations, and revisit tragic events in America's past.

IMMORTAL HOUNDS GN #4

(W) Ryoh Yasohachi (A) Ryoh Yasohachi (CA) Ryoh Yasohachi

In an alternate world everyone is an immortal. There are no doctors or hospitals. Cemetaries are things of the past; some consider them to be legends or myths. But with immortality comes consequences, like the loss of some of humanities greatest gifts... including love. There are those who understand that and choose to die for the ability to experience such emotions again. The government is determined to erradicate those who take that path, however.
