Graphic Novels

Snug
Snug by Catana Chetwynd

I love these. They are cute little comics about dating your best friend! They remind me of Matt and I. The drawings are funny and playful.

Warm Fuzzies.

Under the Moon

Under the Moon: A Catwoman Tale by Lauren Myracle

Catwoman's backstory is always so sad.The scenes with her mom's abusive boyfriend made me cry. Poor kitty!! It was fun watching her learn parkour and make it on the streets to learn her heist skills. Portrays depression, self harm and abuse realistically. All in all, a good take on the character.

222 pages



The Oracle CodeThe Oracle Code by Marieke Nijkamp

When a gunshot leaves her paralyzed, Barbara Gordon, daughter of the police commissioner and hacking extraordinaire, enters the Arkham Center for Independence for rehabilitation. Although a DC comic, I thought it was a thoughtful depiction of characters with a wide range of disabilities. The dark foreshadowing and unexpected answer to a mystery left me pleasantly surprised with the ending. Many teens could relate to Barb's search for identity and acceptance of herself.
