Callie loves theater. And while she would totally try out for her middle school's production of Moon Over Mississippi, she's a terrible singer. Instead she's the set designer for the stage crew, and this year she's determined to create a set worthy of Broadway on a middle-school budget. But how can she, when she doesn't know much about carpentry, ticket sales are down, and the crew members are having trouble working together? Not to mention the onstage AND offstage drama that occurs once the actors are chosen, and when two cute brothers enter the picture, things get even crazier! Following the success of Smile, Raina Telgemeier brings us another graphic novel featuring a diverse set of characters that humorously explores friendship, crushes, and all-around drama! 11am-1pm 426 Maple Ave. East Vienna, VA 22180 703-242-9412 vienna@bigplanetcomics.com 3pm-5pm 7315 Baltimore Ave. College Park, MD 20740 301-699-0498 bigplanetcollegepark@yahoo.com | | | Nobrow 7: Brave New World SC by Anders Nilsen, Andrew Rae, Domitille Collardey, Eleanor Davis, Ethan Rilly, Henry McCausland, Jillian Tamaki, Joose Swarte, Joseph Lambert, Louis Roskosch, Luke Pearson, Michael Deforge, Alex Spiro, Mikkel Sommer, Richard Short, Rob Hunter, Tom Gauld, Sam Vanalleheersch, Eda Akaltun A brilliant new anthology from the Nobrow crew, this one has a theme of "Brave New World", leading to some clever looks at the future or the past, from 3 best friends remembering the first time they met as children, to a kid discovering a new world in the woods juxtaposed with a spaceman finding a new planet, to an alphabet of a bright future and an alphabet of a dystopian one!
