Links: Creators and mythology
June 3, 2009
There's some great fresh content up at Graphic Novel Reporter this week: John Hogan talks to Udon's Jim Zubkavich about the new
Udon Kids manga line, Jimmy Gownley about the award-winning
Amelia Rules, and Eric Wight about his new chapter book-graphic novel hybrid
Frankie Pickle and the Closet of Doom. Also, GNR picks the hottest titles of summer for
kids, tweens, and
teens.
Our own Eva Volin was at Book Expo America, and she teamed up with Diamond's John Shableski and several others to list
the hottest graphic novels coming out this fall.
Also at BEA, Dark Horse announced that it will publish an original graphic novel by Jane Yolen,
The Last Dragon. Yolen, who has written over 280 books for children and young adults, wrote an original story for the graphic novel.
Chris Wilson has an interesting, detailed
account of how he used comics to get a boy interested in reading at The Graphic Classroom.
Jay Piscopo
shares a bit of an upcoming graphic novel on his blog and
hypes the show
Colorful Characters: Storytelling Through Comics, which will run at the Wenham Museum in Wenham, MA from June 9 through Sept. 13.
