The way they both started to learn the other’s native tongue, through pantomime and hand gestures, the way Ping explained some letters and James visually illustrated it … Beautiful.

I lava all the scareverse monsters in the background, and Ghoulia’s zombie language which consists of moans and groans. And, of corpse, the bootiful monster puns.

Overall cool idea, and a nice twist on the red string of fate – blue string for sexual partners, and black string for murder/victim.

On the left, the back cover. A picnic cloth lying in grass, with a sandwich with brainy insides, a bone cookie ("GUDBOY") and a bloody bubble tea. Text: "Zom is just your average everyday zombie girl. Enjoy this laugh-out-loud, wordless comic collection, which follows the everyday adventures of Zom, a zombie girl; Ari, a resident vampire; and Theo, a loveable werewolf. Zom and her fantastical friends navigate everything from dating to beach trips to roommate spats in a colorful, engaging world full of ghouls, skeletons, and ghosts. This silent graphic novel takes full advantage of the illustrated format and shows the hearts (literally, in some cases) at the core of even the spookiest monsters. ZomCom'ics is great for anyone who likes spooky, funny, and relatable stories." Andrews McMeel PUBLISHING® www.andrewsmcmeel.com $18.99 U.S.A. ($25.99 Canada) ISBN: 978-1-5248-9208-1 51899 9781524 892081 Printed in China On the right, the front cover. Zom, Ari and Theo are seen lying on their backs in the grass in a circle and looking at each other, smiling. Zom's arm is detached, lying above their heads. Text: "ZOMCOM'ICS Emi MG"

Loved it! (Especially the Spiderman meme lmao. Or the death reaper situations.) Silent comics are always so cool, and shows again & again how you don’t need many words (or any words) to tell a story! I especially love how diverse and creative each strip is. All kinds of mythological creatures in situations that I…

On the left, the back cover. A green background with no visuals, just text: "Tessa hasn't spoken to Olive in ten years and she's not about to start now... Delight in this enemies-to-lovers graphic novel with a queer twist! Struggling twenty-something Tessa has the dream of a creative career that never quite seems to take off and a long line of terrible first dates. When the coffee shop where she works goes out of business, she's able to visit her parents for the first time in years. Arriving at her family home, she discovers that her parents have rented out the basement apartment to her high school nemesis, Olive Virtue. Old wounds resurface during Tessa's stay, but an accident that traps them in the attic forces them to face their past and think about their future." $18.99 U.S.A.

Tessa, a butch lesbian with a grey shirt and light brown hair, as well as two black earrings in her ears, is standing in the front and looking to the back left, to Olive. Olive is a slightly taller woman with blonde hair, a green long dress with green earring and glasses, looking at Tessa. Both women are blushing at each other. The background shows various scribbles and diary entries with small hearts at the top. Text: "I HATED YOU IN HIGH SCHOOL | KATHLEEN GROS"

More like: friends to enemies to lovers, with a bit of second chance trope. Not that it’s disappointing, I do prefer friends to lovers anyways.

A new spin, making the protagonist of African descent, a slave and a man of color. Plus, connecting it to the Haitian revolution.

The front book cover of “Hi, Earth” (by Elizabeth Pich, Jonathan Kunz) on the right side: Planet earth, sitting on a chair surrounded by fire with the blue sky in the back. On the right, in the background, plastic waste can be seen lying on grass around a garbage bin. The back cover of “Hi, Earth” on the left: A blue sky with fire at the bottom. The sun is shining and grimacing in the top right, behind a 4-panel comic strip. Text below: “This hilarious and bittersweet collection of comics from the webcomic War and Peas pays tribute to a subject near and dear to us all: PLANET EARTH. With comics told from the point of view of animals, icebergs, trees, plastics, aliens, horny flowers, and a teenage praying mantis named Timmy, Hi, Earth packs a Noah's ark-size cast into just over one hundred delightful pages. These sweet and apocalyptic comics celebrate the wonders and weirdness of Earth even as we hurtle toward an uncertain future-roasting our human folly while also creating moments of wonder and appreciation for our beautiful, fragile, messed-up planet.” Andrews McMeel PUBLISHING® www.andrewsmcmeel.com 2025 JONATHAN KUNZ AND ELIZABETH PICH $16.99 U.S.A.

Funny, yet tragic. I mostly wanted to cry to these, but the morbid humor works well enough to even make me laugh away my tears.
