Nimona – Noelle Stevenson
Isn’t that the whole point of being a villain, that you don’t have to follow the rules?
Villains who won’t kill, heroes hiding secrets, a bloodthirsty orphan girl…Filled with hilarity, but also contemplating some deeper issues of morality, this graphic novel (based off the incredibly popular webcomic of the same name) is a mishmash of magic, murderous intentions, mad science, mayhem and madcap adventures…with a dash of aMorous feelings between our manly archenemies. (Sssh, I had to keep the alliteration going!)
Official blurb:
Nemeses! Dragons! Science! Symbolism! All these and more await in this brilliantly subversive, sharply irreverent epic from Noelle Stevenson. Featuring an exclusive epilogue not seen in the web comic, along with bonus conceptual sketches and revised pages throughout, this gorgeous full-color graphic novel is perfect for the legions of fans of the web comic and is sure to win Noelle many new ones.
Nimona is an impulsive young shapeshifter with a knack for villainy. Lord Ballister Blackheart is a villain with a vendetta. As sidekick and supervillain, Nimona and Lord Blackheart are about to wreak some serious havoc. Their mission: prove to the kingdom that Sir Ambrosius Goldenloin and his buddies at the Institution of Law Enforcement and Heroics aren’t the heroes everyone thinks they are.
But as small acts of mischief escalate into a vicious battle, Lord Blackheart realizes that Nimona’s powers are as murky and mysterious as her past. And her unpredictable wild side might be more dangerous than he is willing to admit.
