In January, Papercutz released the first volume of Dance Class, a French series that focuses on a trio of best friends, Julie, Luce, and Ali who study dance together. Each volume of the series focuses on their efforts to master different styles. The first, released in January, explored the world of hip-hop; the second, which is due in stores on July 17th, finds the girls en pointe:
