About this deal

Before Miles has a chance of taking them down, he has to get to the bottom of what they want — and why they’re really here. Mortals,” incidentally, is the operative term here: the (un)lucky divine vessels can only live for two more years after they join with the gods. Alongside his narrative are the slightly fantastical stories of the Monkey King — a powerful master of kung-fu who wants people to view him as a god — and another boy, Danny, who lives in fear of being embarrassed by his stereotypical Chinese cousin. From the outside, Marigold “Goldie” Vance might seem like a regular sixteen-year-old living in Florida with her father. If you’ve ever wondered how to snag an ARC of a much-anticipated book, or enviously browsed Goodreads reviews of as-yet-unreleased titles, then you may already be familiar with NetGalley.

Best friends Enid Coleslaw and Becky Doppelmeyer are stuck in suburbia, which everyone knows is not the best place to be seventeen.Naturally, it’s up to the Black Panther, king of Wakanda, to rally his people if they have a hope of surviving. And in this story, he’s set his sights on Commissioner Gordon as the subject of his social experiment. In this novel, self-made hero Hawkeye is recruited by SHIELD to intercept a package of incriminating evidence. Profound, personal, and political, Satrapi is generous in her retelling of her adolescence — thanks to this, it’s a book you won’t want to put down. The first gay-themed comic to receive online syndication, Jane’s World is a groundbreaking, Eisner-nominated piece of work that deserves a spot in the comic book pantheon.

You can find references to this four-issue comic book miniseries in all the most popular Batman film adaptations, from Batman Forever to The Dark Knight to Batman v Superman. On top of that, Small’s father has anger issues (among other far more worrying issues), and his mother is cruelly cold and closed off. Yet Pri also feels an inexorable pull toward her Indian roots — not least because her mother has always kept her in the dark about them. Blankets has been garlanded with praise since its publication in 2003, winning an Eisner award and regularly featuring in lists of the best graphic novels of all time. Wracked by the pain of artistic constipation, he finds himself entangled in the inner lives of his unusual new neighbors.

Craig's parents: Craig's parents are strict, devoutly religious Christians who are not very tolerant of liberal Christianity. It’s not the wish Marigold was expecting, and at first she doesn’t seem at all sure about this arrangement.

Most of all, Nault’s interpretation of Atwood’s language is spectacular, living up to The Handmaid’s Tale’s lofty name and stamping it as a classic in the world of graphic novels. Brenna Thummler’s artwork brings the pastoral beauty of Avonlea to life, rendering it in pastel shades that will soon have you homesick for Green Gables and Aunt Marilla’s delicious plum puffs. It’s not the easiest set of circumstances, but Jarrett does his best, with the support of his grandparents, and the world of drawing as an escape. Millennial comic artist Noelle Stevenson started the series on Tumblr, and it shows — Nimona’s deadpan, memeable humor is sure to wring a few chuckles from the Highly Online.In the charmingly-rendered Sheets, thirteen-year-old Marjorie has a lot going on: her mother is dead, her father has depression, and she has to take care of her younger brother and the family laundromat, all while juggling the nightmare of high school.
