Mendel the Mess-Up

Cursed from birth, Mendel Schlotz is the unluckiest kid in his village. He's also the only one who can save it. Ask anyone--twelve-year-old Mendel can't do anything right. When he tries to herd goats, they get out. When he tries to chop wood, he breaks the ax. It's embarrassing to be called "Mendel the Mess Up," but it's worse to be so clumsy that he can't even stand to read aloud without destroying the classroom. Nobody expects Mendel to keep out of trouble... least of all himself. But when the Cossacks invade Mendel's remote Jewish village of Lintvint (famous for Lintvint kvatch, which is made from a very special ingredient), Mendel's not the only one in trouble. When he slips away from the mountain caves where his fellow villagers are hiding, out of certainty he'll find a way to make things worse if he's around them, he discovers an unexpected opportunity to save the day.&nbsp; Mendel's always been different because everything he does turns into disaster. Now, he's the only one who can help the people who doubt him. Could Mendel's bad luck be the key to saving Lintvint? Or will his plan to drive the Cossacks off go as badly as everyone--including him--expects? Sympathetic, funny, and warm, this fast-paced middle-grade graphic novel from a veteran Jewish comics star reminds young readers who feel just a little out of place in their world that sometimes our weaknesses can be our greatest strengths.

Bugs Bunny: What's Up Doc

A graphic novel that’s a unique mashup of Siberian shamanism and classic noir detective fiction, Muktuk Wolfsbreath takes readers on a wildly entertaining, hallucinogenic journey to heaven, hell and the dark secrets hiding behind the skin covers of reindeer herders’ tents. The mean streets of New York and L.A. have nothing on the frigid forests of Siberia when it comes to danger, and Muktuk Wolfsbreath needs all his shamanic powers to deal with wicked women, thuggish tribesmen, demons, animal spirits and his own troubled past as he fights to rescue a young boy's soul. Includes the 3 original, never-reprinted Muktuk stories that appeared in LaBan’s alternative comic series Cud and Cud Comics.

It's race time in Indianapolis, and the only thing hotter than the action on the track is the passion boiling outside of the stadium walls. Local Grendel chief Hack has his hands full. Between the volatile visiting Grendel clans tearing up the town, a mysterious vigilante on a Grendel-killing spree, and forces within his own clan that seek to depose him, there's little room for error or emotion. But when he feels himself falling for Dana, the city hospital's headstrong lead physician, he quickly finds things spiraling out of his control. And he's not the only one with problems. Dana's struggling with her delinquent son, desperately trying to keep him away from the very Grendel that she herself is growing ever attracted to.
