![]() ![]() I’m also aware that I’m not exactly the target audience for this book. When I buy a graphic novel I expect maybe 10 pages of bonus content, not a good chunk of the book. Which would be fine in an art book or something like the Adventure Time: Eye Candy books, which exist solely to display the variants. Almost a third of the book is the cover gallery. There are tons of variant covers with the characters and world rendered by amazing artists. (There’s a cover by Trillian Gunn exclusive to Chicago’s Challengers Comics + Conversations. The adventures are just ways to see Bee react in weird situations. There’s focus on feelings and slice of life which are 90% of Bee and Pupp圜at. It revealed that she was a wrestler, which came back in the final episode of the show. The comic came out during the show’s lengthy hiatus. It’s a day in the life of Cass, a character who doesn’t get much spotlight in the show. I particularly liked “A Fighting Spirit” by Frank Gibson and Becky Dreistadt. The bulk of the book is short stories by a bunch of cartoonists. It’s basically an episode of the show, which makes sense. There’s a cool bit where you can use QR codes to hear the music. The pair go on a mission to repair magic music boxes that exist inside snow globes in space.

The company does a really great job of finding the best talent from areas the big three aren’t even looking at. Almost all of the Boom! books I read are from the imprint. They’re kinda the go-to for licensed all-ages books because they’re able to turn out well illustrated, smartly written comics that never diverge too far from the properties, but let the characters develop in ways they haven’t in the main cannon. The comic is published by Boom! Studios’ all-ages imprint, KaBoom, which I adore. It’s kinda Sailor Moon meets 21st-century concerns, but really pretty. Needing money, they go on extra-dimensional temp jobs. I reread it on a whim, and I guess I completely forgot everything in it.īee and Pupp圜at is an animated web series in which a perpetually unemployed young woman named Bee meets a magical creature she takes in and names Pupp圜at. I usually try to pick something I haven’t read for this column, but I hadn’t read this book since the second printing came out in 2015. This week’s pick is Bee and Pupp圜at Vol 1 by Natasha Allegri, Jackson Garrett, and misc. “Best” is subjective to be sure, but this is why I love what I’m reading. It doesn’t have to be in any particular format. It doesn’t have to have actually come out this week. Welcome to my column where I talk about the best comic I’ve read each week. ![]()
