Preview: Lumberjanes
Let’s kick off the week with a preview of a great new all-ages comic, Lumberjanes, a good old-fashioned story about a quintet plucky girls at summer camp facing down weird supernatural creatures. The first issue plunges us right into the action, pitting the Lumberjanes against a three-eyed fox. Although this book is part of BOOM! Studios’ Boom Box imprint, not their kaBOOM kids’ line, it is an all-ages title with plenty of girl-centered action and adventure for young readers and sly wit and awesome art for the adults. The first issue is available now in comics shops or digitally. Enjoy!
