North, Ryan

?Easily my favorite book of the year.? ?Tillie Walden, Eisner Award?winning creator of Spinning A twisty, spellbinding adventure about a girl and her dog who want to save the world, Danger and Other Unknown Risks is the highly anticipated YA graphic novel debut from Eisner Award-winning and New York Times bestselling creators Ryan North and Erica Henderson. I'm gonna tell you a story, and I'm gonna ask that you let me finish before you say anything. Here?s the deal?on midnight of January 1st, 2000, the world ended. But it wasn?t technology that killed it: It was magic. Now, years later, the Earth has transformed. Magic works (sort of). People are happy (sort of). But this new world isn?t stable, and unless Marguerite de Pruitt and her canine pal, Daisy, do something about it, it?ll tilt into deadly chaos. Good thing they?ve been training their whole lives for this and are destined to succeed. Or so they think. Ryan North and Erica Henderson, the bestselling masterminds behind Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, serve up a graphic novel that is equally laugh-out-loud adventure and emotional gut punch. A story about the search for truth, chosen family, and rebirth, the journey of Marguerite and Daisy seeks to ask one vital question: How far are you willing to go to save the world?.

[A] graphic novel adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five, . . . faithfully presented in which Billy Pilgrim's journey is at once a farcical look at the horror and tragedy of war where children are placed on the frontlines and die . . . , and a moving examination of what it means to be fallibly human.

Follows the adventures of mutant Doreen Green, aka the superhero Squirrel Girl, as she, her squirrel sidekick Tippy-Toe, and a squirrel army, with a little help from Iron Man, take on Kraven the Hunter, Galactus, and college life.

"The Death of Squirrel Girl! Squirrel Girl attends a funeral - her own! But how is that possible? Who is that in the coffin? Hmm, wonder if it has anything to do with all those Skrulls who have recently surfaced"--Provided by publisher.

"With her unique combination of wit, empathy and squirrel powers, computer science student Doreen Green is all that stands between the Earth and total destruction! Well, Doreen plus her friends Tippy-Toe (a squirrel) and Nancy (a regular human). So mainly Squirrel Girl. Then, what hope does Earth have if Doreen gets hurled back in time and erased from history? Some hope, hopefully, as Howard the Duck is waiting impatiently for a crossover! And if one animal encounter isn't enough, prepare for Swarm, a buzzkill made of bees, and Mole Man, the subterranean super villain looking for love! But you're not here for flowers and kissing, you're all about computer science and super-heroics. Get both--and more--in a showdown with Count Nefaria!"--Back cover.

"Squirrel Girl takes Nancy to visit her mom in Canada! What could possibly go wrong? How about the return of a villain not seen for more than a decade? One that prompts the inter-species team-up you've been waiting for: squirrels and ants!"--Provided by publisher.

Follows Marguerite de Pruitt and her canine pal, Daisy, as they embark on a journey to save the world.

"A history of the key technologies that made each stage of human civilization possible details the science, engineering, mathematics, art, music, philosophy, facts and figures required for even the most clueless time traveler to build a civilization"--OCLC.

"What happens when everyone in Ooo suddenly forgets how to make meals? How long will it take before Finn and Jake no longer have the energy to save their friends? More importantly, how long will it take before the people of the Candy Kingdom realize... they are candy?! It's an outrageous race against time with only Jake and his subconscious sandwich know-how here to save the day, or at least feed it"--Back cover.
