ZANADU RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 1/9/13

JINNRISE #1

(W) Sohaib Awan (A) Tony Vassalo

Part 1: "Manifest Destiny." International student Andrew Marcus' world is torn asunder when interstellar forces, the "Kibrani," invade earth. With all hope seemingly lost, humanity's last chance may be a long-despised and forgotten race: the Jinn (otherwise known as "genies")! But are they our hope... or greatest fear? Combining the best of summer blockbuster fare and quest myths like Lord of the Rings, Jinnrise is a modern re-introduction to global myth.

RECOMMENDED BY PERRY!

Y'KNOW...FOR KIDS!

Are you a geek family? Trying to find a comic you can read to your kids and enjoy as well? Then try SUPER SIBLINGS, an all ages comic for parents and their children! Written and illustrated by Patrick Scullin and filled with more nerdy references than you can shake a lightsaber at, this weekly webcomic is now available as a kickstarter funded graphic novel that will look great on your bookshelf next to those copies of Tiny Titans! (At least that's what Art Baltazar had to say about it!)

SUPER SIBLINGS: LORD OF THE CLARKS

(W/A) Patrick Scullin

The first graphic novel collected edition of Super Siblings. Includes the ongoing webcomic and the first three Super Siblings comic book issues.
The comic strip features geek dad James and perfect mom Donna in a slice of life satire on the Clark family. Totally ordinary themselves, neither parent suspects that their children have super powers. Written and illustrated for geeks and their kids by Patrick Scullin.
