Modern Fables for a Darker World

  • The Anthology: This volume collects four chilling, self-contained stories that take the familiar tropes of "afterschool specials" and subvert them into something far more sinister. From extraterrestrial encounters to blood-soaked social pressures, each tale serves as a cautionary warning for the modern age.

  • Masterful Storytelling: Benson and Moorhead bring their signature "indie-horror" sensibilities to the comic book medium, crafting narratives that are as intellectually stimulating as they are terrifying.

  • Diverse Art Styles: Featuring a rotating cast of incredible artists, the visual language of the book shifts to match the tone of each story, ranging from clean and clinical to dark and expressive.

  • The Skybound Standard: Published under Robert Kirkman's Skybound imprint, this collection maintains the high-quality production and innovative storytelling the label is known for.

A gaze into our past for older LGBTQ persons.
Format: Kindle
So much like a lot of people I watched the Netflix show first, and then purchased all the graphic novels after. I will say the show is pretty true to the original story, however, I do truly love these graphic novels a bit more. As an older member of the LGBTQ it is beautiful to kind of take a trip back to when I was younger in school. I can relate to both Nick's internal struggles and Charlie's outward struggle dealing with other students so it's kind of a two-fer for me personally. This graphic novels tells a lovely story of what actual LGBTQ youth are going through, and for us older folks what we wish we could of went through. Alice Oseman did a beautiful job illustrating this story, because not only were you reading the interactions, you could see the interactions which made it more personal and intimate. I highly recommend this series for not only youth, but for older persons as well. I cannot wait to see more of the Nick and Charlie series if Alice decides to continue their tale.

The beginning….
Format: Kindle
….of the Charlie and Nick story. And my first graphic novel. Having watched the tv series, thought I would read the book series. The drawings are cute, and of course with those graphics it’s a very quick read. Enjoyed it.

A beautifully written and illustrated tale of kindness, courage and (imaginary) friendship
Format: Hardcover
A beautifully written and illustrated tale of kindness, courage and friendship (even if the friend is in your imagination). This is a great picture book for building self-esteem and for helping early learners to discover ways to overcome obstacles by showing how upbeat confidence boosting self-talk is the way to go. I adore this beautiful family and how the climb up the slide's stairs is so relatable-you just feel the endless up, up, up as you ascend, like climbing up the stairs of the high dive and looking down and just that whoosh of fear that vertakes you from the seemingly dizzying height. I love the kindness on all the adults' faces and the cute expressions from the child. The lion is magnificent. I love that it gives shape to a child’s imaginary friend and that this friend is a true safety net -which is really the child being their own safety net. The end pages are bright orange and sunny, using the cute lion face in the pattern and all the illustrations, which are predominantly blue and yellow/orange illustrations are the perfect backdrop for the tumble of dark curls on the child’s head which allow the size of the lion to appear gigantic, and yet, calm and sweet like a kitty cat. Very sweet book! I love its message of bravery, confidence building and how you can truly be your own best friend.
