Graphic Novels Roundup - April 2020

The world continues to be in lock down and there's turmoil in the direct market for comics. It seems a bit odd to be ordering books and graphic novels when the library is closed but that's exactly what we're doing.

This month's highlights include, Dancing at the Party by Tyler Feder, Grafity's Wall by Ram V and Anand Radhaskrishnan, My Video Game at My Homework by Dustin Hansen and We Are the Danger by Fabian Lelay and Claudia Aguirre. We also want to highlight Trace Balla's new book, Landing With Wings. Trace Balla is a creator from Castlemaine and her books are an absolute delight to read. Landing With Wings is her latest and every library should have it.

For Adult General books, again, there's a wide range of books. The highlights include, Batman: Last Knight on Earth by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, Bix by Sott Chantler and Portrait of a Drunk by Florent Ruppert, Jerome Mulot and Olivier Schrawen.
