Preview: Polly and the Pirates: Mystery of the Dragonfish

February 4, 2012 by Brigid Alverson   Leave a Comment

Make yourself comfortable, because we have a special treat for you today: A 32-page preview of Polly and the Pirates: Mystery of the Dragonfish, written by Ted Naifeh and illustrated by Robbi Rodriguez. This is the second collection of the Polly and the Pirates comics, and it comes almost five years after the first, but it’s well worth waiting for. Naifeh’s witty writing and Rodriguez’s fluid artwork make a nice package that’ s fun for adults and young readers alike; if you want to know more about them, check out this interview at Newsarama. The first volume got lots of good reviews, and we’re expecting the same for this one. So jump in and enjoy the fun.
