Americana (And The Art of Getting Over It) is a graphic novel by cartoonist Luke Healy. He’s Irish and had numerous periods living in the United States, all of which ended with him reluctantly having to leave the country. Americana is his story about hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, a path that stretches from the southernmost tip of California all the way through Canada’s much colder climate in the mountains. It’s a 2,600 mile trek that took Healy 147 days.
What’s new in all age comic books this week? In the podcast we’ll chat about Marvel Team Up, Tangled and a couple other comic books that tie-in to some announcements made at D23 recently.
If you’re looking for a comic book that’s great for ages 8 and up this week check out Lumberjanes or Invader Zim. If it’s something a little younger you’re looking for dig into Tangled: Hair It Is, My Little Pony or Casper’s Capers. Our favorite all age comic book (or in this case, graphic novel) is Tyna of the Lake. This is volume 3 in the ongoing Gamayun Tales series by Nobrow Press. This graphic novel is beautifully illustrated and full of the sorts of imagery and monsters that live in fables that ages seven and up will love. This a great example of an all age graphic novel that appeals to those in elementary school and up-without watering down the action or adventure older readers yearn for.
