The Creeps by Fran Krause

“If I need to get out of bed late at night, I sing a little song to myself.

That way, I won’t accidentally say any magic words and summon spirits

from inside my mirror.”

The Creeps is a charming collection of 97 short comics by Fran Krause. It’s also a follow-up to Krause’s NYT Best Selling book: Deep Dark Fears. Both books tell fears–both logical and illogical–that humans face in their life.

Alexander Hamilton: The Graphic History of an American Founding Father

“Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.

Men often oppose a thing merely because they have had no agency in planning it,

or because it may have been planned by those whom they dislike.

It’s not tyranny we desire; it’s a just, limited, federal government.”

– Alexander Hamilton

Since the successful musical, Hamilton, the story of Alexander Hamilton’s life has become such a popular topic. Many fans of the musical want to learn more about Alexander Hamilton and his work as one of America’s Founding Father, including me. And though he was one of the most influential figures in United States’ history, non-Americans is not too familiar with his life story, unlike with the other Founding Fathers such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. Now, author Jonathan Hennessey and comic book illustrator Justin Greenwood bring Alexander Hamilton’s world to life. Through this graphic novel, they tell the story of improbable hero who helped shape the United States of America.
