Today’s featured blog review comes from venerable comics blog No Flying No Tights, courtesy of Round 1 Graphic Novels judge Amy Estersohn, who is a seventh-grade English teacher by day. Recently, she reviewed YA Graphic Novels nominee Lucky Penny by Ananth Hirsh and Yuko Ota, a story about a very unlucky young woman. About the book, Amy said:
“This book’s sensibility and its entertaining array of characters, including Helen’s middle-school-aged younger brother who has the mannerisms of a crime boss, Walter’s attractive coterie of female friends, and a calico cat, are comparable to works like Scott Pilgrim.”
