Publisher Description
In Snow Angel, an ordinary but conscientious little girl becomes a crime-fighting cherub whenever she makes an angel in the snow! Snow Angel faces jaywalkers, bicycle thieves, menacing dogs, shoplifters, and the rampaging Sugar Cube Robots! The young rascal can even alter the Earth's polar axis! This full-color, all-ages collection includes the Snow Angel stories that ran in the acclaimed Dark Horse Presents anthology--as well as new adventures from the playful mind of creator David Chelsea (David Chelsea in Love, Everybody Gets it Wrong and Other Stories, Sleepless and Other Stories).
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Snow Angel is a hero with an unusual superpower: when this teen girl makes snow angels, she turns into one, complete with white robes, a halo, and the ability to fly. Using snow balls, ice breath, and witty banter, she fights the petty crime that makes every day aggravating: jaywalking, bad manners, and comic-con swindlers. When her parents move to Tucson, Ariz., life becomes much more difficult for Snow Angel, not just because she has to deal with her pesky brother and unbeliever of a mother; now she must find or create enough snow to trigger her transformations, or suffer as an angry nobody who's forever able to see the world's wrongs but never right them. With story and art by Chelsea (Sleepless and Other Stories) and colors by Jacob Mercy (Dracula vs. a Hemophiliac), this episodic superhero tale is a curmudgeon's attempt at seeing the world a little brighter; the story and the pen-and-ink atmosphere will appeal to those looking for their next indie gem.
