MICROCOSM PUBLISHING
INVINCIBLE SUMMER VOLUME 2 TP
by Nicole Georges
The usual doggies, sheep, and elephants wearing clothes — but this graphic novel
collecting issues #9-14 of the comic — focuses around Nicole Georges’
relationship with Radio. It begins, blossoms, and then falls apart, as she sails
solo on the ocean… pictorially speaking. The first Invincible Summer character
to use a real name goes from hero to villain in these five issues. We're also
treated to the usual Vegan recipes, priceless moments, friendships, humor,
fashion, and heart from this rad Portland lady! (C: 0-1-2)

Heaven! (C: 0-1-2)
