New book new book!

We just got in copies of Prudence Shen and Faith Erin Hicks’ Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong.  You may be following along with our online serial of this most excellent book (in which everything that could go wrong does, starting with chainsaws).

It looks marvelous!  Here are pictures.

The title on the cover has spot gloss on it, which is why it is shiny in this picture.  And despite the ominous title, (almost) nothing is going wrong on the cover!

On this most excellent back cover, you can see that things have already started to go wrong for our valiant characters and their robot.

Here’s the book’s spine.  It’s got author names!  Book titles!  The works!

NCPGW_Final_Spine

Here is a whole pile of books all stacked up!  Nate looks up in dread on each and every spine!  Plus there is spot gloss.

Here’s what all the signatures of the book look like together — you guys, I have to tell you: it’s pretty long.  And that’s always a good thing with a graphic novel.

I love this dedication!

Here’s the title page.  You can see in this picture that nothing seems to be going wrong — but a lot is happening secretly behind the scenes.

The first appearance of the robot.  It’s important.

This book includes: hilarious and contagious dialogue!  You can’t help but want to read it.

NCPGW_Final_Int2

I love these two panels.  Clearly, Charlie is planning something . . . bad.  Very, very bad.

We can’t wait for this book to be on sale in May!
