On the strength of the artwork alone, I would name it the winner. I will never not be obsessed with this art. Monstress: Volume 2 Writer I was pleasantly surprised to find pirates in this series. The story, while informative, lacked the heart that had previously punched me in the feels. So beautiful. Maika is on a journey to find something and get rid of something.

    Monstress Volume 1 By Author, Marjorie Liu Reviewed by: Jake 16 Star Teen Book Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity www.bethestaryouare.orG Maika Halfwolf, a seventeen-year-old girl, is a mysterious key player in an ongoing war. The war is between Arcanics, a race of magical creatures and the Cumea, an order of witches who consume Arcanics for power. Maika is a human-passing Arcanic, who is missing an arm and branded with a strange sideways eye symbol on her chest. Captured by slavers, she is sold to a witch called Sophie and brought to one of the witches’ compounds. Unlike other Arcanics, Maika possesses a strange and unreliable power that seems to unlock locks. Maika manages to escape her chains thanks to her powers, and by travelling through the witches’ compound, information is revealed about her past and powers. Maika’s story is a great look at the quest for power and the struggle to survive. The first installment of Marjorie Liu’s graphic novel series wonderfully blends her dark fantasy story with Sana Takeda’s beautiful art. The series has also won numerous awards, including the British Fantasy Awards, the Eisner Awards, the Harvey Awards, and the Hugo Awards. This series is geared towards a mature audience, as it incorporates themes of war, slavery, dehumanization, and survival to create a gripping tale. Further depictions of death, rape, partial nudity, and child slavery are also triggering content. Maika’s bravery, and tale of survival is simultaneously bleak and inspiring. Her journey humanizes those who have survived a war, while also commenting on the trauma that results from such an experience.

José González, Pepe, era una fuerza de la naturaleza capaz de hacer cualquier cosa que se propusiera y hacerla bien. Admirado por su arte en todo el mundo, su peculiar forma de enfrentarse a la vida hizo que su entorno no siempre le entendiera bien. Pocas personalidades del mundo del cómic han sido tan influyentes como Pepe. Carlos Giménez, que le conoció muy bien, se atreve, siguiendo un poco la senda abierta en Los Profesionales, a realizar la biografía de Pepe. En cinco entregas, Giménez nos ofrecerá su obra cumbre en la que su arte y, sobre todo, su capacidad de análisis del alma humana, nos ofrece un impresionante fresco de quién fue José González, Pepe.

    Today, we look at the Hugos, and tyhough I’ve been away these many months, from from the reading or the viewing, I’m not unaware of what’s what... OK, I am, but today we’re going to look at the Media Offerings on the Ballot, so just Best Dram Pres- Short, Best Dram Pres - Long, and Best Graphic Story. Join me, won’t you, as we look at two categories in this first of probably four issues! Best Dramatic Presentation The Short Form This is an interesting set of nominations, as is always the case with BDPSF. There’s good stuff, and there’s stuff I didn’t love, but the biggest deal is, as is often the case, the lack of short films. Last year was a great year for short films, abso- lutely incredible, and there are enough to easily fill up an entire roster. Examples? Daisy Chain, an anti-bullying short that is magical in nature and narrated by Kate Winslet. Instapocalypse, a wonderfully hilarious zombie comedy. The three very similarly named Monster, Monster, and Monsters, all of which are phenomenal. That doesn’t even get into the an- imated shorts. I get it, tv is what people wanna give awards to, but if that’s the case, call it best television episode. Black Mirror: “San Junipero”, written by “San Junipero” made me full-on ugly cry, right As for TV, I don’t really know what else we could Charlie Brooker, directed by Owen Harris there on my couch. While a Belinda Carlisle have put up.
