Neurocomic, a graphic novel on the brain for middle school and up

The other day in the podcast and over on Youtube I mentioned that I read a graphic novel and had no idea of how to accurately describe its content. It’s not that it was bad or poorly presented; it’s just that the subject matter was high level and required a second reading. Having said that, even after reading Neurocomic twice I’m still unable to tell you the details from memory, despite the fact that I enjoyed reading it both times. That is also quite ironic or appropriate, given the fact that Neurocomic is about the brain, memories, and how they’re made, or in my case, forgotten.

Neurocomic has the seemingly impossible task of making a graphic novel on the brain approachable and entertaining and nails it to the cerebellum, in a good way.
A graphic novel that makes the brain understandable? Yup.

Deadendia The Broken Halo, quirky LGBTQ sci-fi graphic novel

My weird is not your weird. What I think is different, odd or not my normal could be your go-to entertainment. Quirky is a much better word for that. Everything can be quirky. It’s the way that your dog walks around the bush three times before using the bathroom. It’s the way that some creators accent their characters to a degree in their mannerisms to make just a bit more eccentric than the rest of us. Deadendia The Broken Halo is the second book in the series by Hamish Steele on Nobrow. It’s full on quirky for those readers 14 and up who want a beautifully illustrated story that’s crafted in another dimension, then wrapped in bacon and served with a side of friendship, monsters and angels.

Deadendia: The Broken Halo is quirk-tastic, sci-fi with an LGBTQ twist

Tyna of the Lake is a lush, timeless graphic novel for ages 6 and up

Tyna of the Lake is the kind of book that will confound and amaze young readers.  The art style is lovingly drawn and presented on a huge storied canvas. The illustrations convey the grandiose scale of the monsters, their uniqueness and the magic of the world that lives under the lake. Tyna of the Lake is a Russian folktale that has all of the classic elements you’ve witnessed in other stories; but weaves them together in a way that’s surprising and ends like a Seinfeld episode-which is back at the beginning.

Tyne of the Lake has the quality story and art that you want to read-and that you want your kids to read, even if they don’t’ want to.
Tyna of the Lake, an utterly gorgeous graphic novel that middle Earth kids will dig
