Stroke!
Matt Kindt is truly one of the most versatile writers in comics, succeeding in all kinds of genres. Working with artist Wilfredo Torres, Kindt manages to reverse the spy genre and eliminate all the tired old tropes.
Blue in green
Having already proven their artistic merit with Grafity’s Wall, writer Ram V and artist Anand RK reach even greater heights in this stunning graphic novel. Blue in Green combines horror and jazz music in a haunting, psychedelic fusion of art and words.
BOWIE: Stardust, Rayguns and Moonage Daydreams
There was no one like David Bowie – glam rock superstar, genre-bending fashion icon, talented actor and a man of a thousand different identities. This graphic novel biography captures the enigma that Bowie was as she explores his rise to fame and his struggle to reconcile his warring sides. It also gives real visual life to some of Bowie’s most iconic songs.
Superman breaks the Klan
This graphic novel cleverly updates a classic Superman radio series for a modern audience, making it one of the best releases from DC’s ever-growing YA line of graphic novels. It may be in the 1940s, but Superman Smashes the Klan proves that the Man of Steel and his pursuit of ideals like tolerance and empathy are truly timeless.
You brought me the ocean
While the new Aqualad Jackson Hyde has been around for a full decade, it’s only recently that DC has really started to take advantage of the character. Jackson gets the coming-of-age tale he deserves in this graphic novel by YA, as he takes on the challenges of being queer, black, and half-human while yearning for the freedom of the great ocean.
