Picks:

Lapis Lazuli Crown Vol. 1 – This is a new title from CMX.  Mieru is a member of the Violet family, who 50 years ago was disgraced due to a mistake during an important ceremony.  Mieru has been chosen to participate in the ceremony and could restore the family’s good name, but first she learn to control her power.  She’s not really motivated until she meets a boy who happens to resemble the prince of the realm, and needs her help.  CMX has had a really good track record with pick entertaining shojo and all ages manga, so expect good things from this title.

G-Man TP Vol 1 Learning To Fly – From Chris Giarrusso, the creator of Mini-Marvels, comes an original creation, G-Man.  Drawn in the same cute style, and with lots of humor kids love, this volume collects several previously printed stories; the one-shot featuring G-Man’s origins, the Christmas story, and Comic Bits comic strips of G-Man and his pals.  Both boys and girls can appreciate this title, and would make great light reading between those grueling AR assignments.
