I absolutely adored Ben Hatke's bestselling, science-fictional kid-comic Zita the Space Girl, and the sequel, Legends of Zita the Space Girl, was the perfect followup. Hatke captures the madcap lunacy of Vaughn Bode and the Mos Eisley Cantina, throws in a kick-ass girl adventurer, and great art, and it's just about perfect.
Now comes the good news that there's a third (and final) volume in the Zita trilogy coming on May 13: The Return of Zita the Space Girl.
Gina from FirstSecond sez, "Ben Hatke brings back our intrepid space heroine for another delightful sci-fi/fantasy adventure in the final volume of this New York Times Best-Selling trilogy. Zita the Spacegirl has saved planets, battled monsters, and wrestled with interplanetary fame. But she faces her biggest challenge yet in the third and final installment of the Zita adventures. Wrongfully imprisoned on a penitentiary planet, Zita has to plot the galaxy's greatest jailbreak before the evil prison warden can execute his plan of interstellar domination!"
