Las Islas Filipinas, 1774. Sabrina, the young daughter of an exiled Spanish Conquistador, is abducted by Iranun pirate and taken to the island of Jolo. There, she discovers her true identity as the granddaughter of the Sultan of Sulu and meets a mysterious swordsman called 'Alandal'. Brought to life through the stunning black and white illustrations of comics legend and Will Eisner Comic Hall of Fame inductee Alex Ni?o and written by musician, producer, and director Jay Ignacio, ALANDAL explores a pivotal era in Filipino history and uses the enduring power of speculative fiction to explore the complexities of history and identity. ALANDAL won the 2022 National Children's Book Award for Best Reads, and the 2023 National Book Award for Best Graphic Novel.

FAMILY TIME TP

The O'Connell family (Lily - age 13; Tyler - age 11; and their parents) are vacationing in Ireland when they encounter an old man with a mysterious crystal that seemingly teleports them 1,000 years back in time. Unsure whether they have stumbled into a historical re-enactment, the family must befriend Rory, a timid local, battle a medieval tyrant named Ciaran and his henchmen, and figure out how to get back to the present, while Lily learns to use her newfound superpowers. From the writer/creator of Seven Sons, Robert Windom, and his eleven-year-old daughter, Lily, comes a fun, fantasy adventure. Featuring cover art by Jae Lee, as well as Art Direction and cover art by Sanford Greene (Bitter Root)-both Eisner-Award winning artists-and anime-inspired interior art by new talent and Greene-protege Asiah Fulmore (DC's Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld).

FRIDAY FOSTER COLLECTED HC

The Friday Foster comic strip is the story of a former nightclub 'camera bunny' turned photographer's assistant turned fashion model. With an innate inclination to help others and a natural beauty that makes her a magnet for men, Friday often finds herself in some very sticky situations and world-class adventures. The strip is generally cited as the first mainstream (i.e. nationally syndicated) comic strip starring a black character in the title role and features a mixture of adventure and romance, often with social commentary thrown in for good measure. The strip ran from 1970-1974.
