Experience the artistic tour-de-force of Lorna Miller’s original Witch graphic novel, brought back into print by Slave Labor and collecting her early work before her quarterly SLG series. Introduction by Peter Bagge, who writes: “anger and frustration at various indignities both large and small are what seem to be at the bottom of most of her tales, coupled with a healthy artistic ego that she keeps in check with a self-deprecating sense of humor...I’m gonna be keeping up with everything Ms. Miller has to ffer, and if you’re a wise comics shopper you’ll do the same!” FOR MATURE READERS.

The 13th of Never

Scrambly, Crab

When you can float through the air and conjure up monsters out of ectoplasm, you're bound to attract attention. Come stare at Ms. Serenity Rose, local witch, as she spends the day dodging goblins, goths, and a bad case of social phobia in the spookiest lil town in America. A Booklist Starred Review - Serenity "Sera" Rose tries to live a quiet life. She has her friends Tess and Kelton and her art. For the most part, she is happily sullen among Crestfallen's gothy not-quite-subculture. But the fact that she is a witch makes her dreams of anonymity seem out of reach. It's bad enough trying to avoid becoming a tourist attraction and dodging the goth wannabes, but when vampires start turning up and rock star-witch Rivet Hed's creepy manager wants something from her, she knows her life won't be quiet much longer. There are a lot of words to read in Serenity Rose, but in the first collection of it, they're all worthwhile. Aaron A. (for Alexovich) isn't afraid to take time to develop a plot, which means there is also time to get to know the characters and appreciate the full-on snarky sarcasm of his humor. While the setting is an urban gothic subculture, plenty of potshots are taken at the cliches of cool among its inhabitants. A.'s artwork is beautiful, a sort of dark homage to animation genius Chuck Jones with a splash of Ameri-manga for good measure. Even in shades of gray rather than color, it has enough attitude to stop a truck, making it a nice contrast to all those stuffy superheroes on the graphic-novel shelves.

Serenity Rose Volume One: Working Through the Negativity

Aaron Alexovich

Science Fiction & Fantasy

Punk Rock &amp; Trailer Parks conjures up the oppressive insanity of growing up in a small town, the day-to-day weirdness of the trailer parks tucked away therein, the magic allure of sex and the necessary comforts of friendship, the mystical power of the counter-culture to turn outcasts into heroes and, most of all, the transcendent power of music, specifically the punk rock of the late 1970's which redefined, transported, and ultimately, perhaps, disappointed a generation.

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac #4

Vasquez, Jhonen

A wordless, but hardly silent, comic book series Model A follows the life of a robot who springs to life in a seemingly abandoned facility. The high-spirited robot finds that not only is he not alone, but also unwelcome as he quickly becomes a target for the dominant upgrades: the Model B’s! But are the Model B’s friends, foes, or something else entirely and what are their plans for Model A? “Bambas communicates everything he needs to through the robot’s body language and creates a charmingly clumsy character with more personality than Wall-E.” Ed Brisson Comic Book Resources
