Emily's 13th Hour adventure is here!
Would you believe that Emily wasn't always the curious and confident stranger we know today? After three years and a slew of great short-story explorations of Emily's eclectic life, creator/writer Rob Reger and artist Buzz Parker are back with the first full-length Emily comic-book series! For any girl, a thirteenth birthday is a big deal , and that's doubly-even triply!-true for Emily. Emily doesn't know it yet, but a surprise gift from a long-lost aunt is more than just a family heirloom -- it also holds the key to unlocking the mystery of her lineage and the secrets of her fate! Unfortunately, a strange creature called El Viego knows what Emily doesn't, and he has no intention of letting Emily keep her mysterious heirloom! Each 32 page, black and white comic comes with free plastic bag & backing board to keep it in mint condition. Check it out... ‘Strange' Days article from The Wall Street Journal
Emily the Strange, a raven-haired girl with a gaggle of ominous cats and a mischievous world view has become an unlikely merchandising star. A pop-culture icon for girls stars in a new novel for young adults Since the Emily image was first launched in 1991 as a set of skateboard designs, the fictional character's popularity has spread. Berkeley, Calif.-based artist Rob Reger now churns out more than 500 different kinds of Emily items a year, from stickers to steering wheel covers. Next week, Mr. Reger is releasing, through the publishing house HarperCollins, an Emily the Strange young-adult novel. Written in a diary format with Jessica Gruner, "Emily the Strange: The Lost Days," opens with Emily attempting to recover her memory and regain her sense of style. Mr. Reger says the book maps new territory inside the mind of his popular character. "In the past, it's been us describing her," he says. "This is the first time anybody gets to hear how she talks to herself and her cats." Emily the Strange: The Lost Days Novel
In her first adventure, Emily the Strange: The Lost Days, Emily arrives in the small, sinister town of Blackrock. Armed with only a blank notebook and a slingshot, she has no memory of how she got there, who she is, or even of her own name. The story that follows in Emily's first-person narrative is part mystery, part adventure, and wholly, delightfully strange. 256 pages of story and illustrations, hardbound and published by HarperCollins Publishers. Check out the video of Rob and Jessica reading the book at San Francisco WonderCon!
