YALSA pick Green Monk returns in an all-new original graphic novel from Image Comics
Brandon Dayton once again brings mythical Russia to life in the highly anticipated continuation to YALSA’s “Top Ten Great Graphic Novels for Teens” listed comic in Green Monk: Blood of the Martyrs—an original graphic novel coming to Image Comics this September.
“So excited to be bringing the Green Monk to a wider audience through Image,” said Dayton. “This is a book that has all the things I love to see in comics. It’s a mix of quiet, contemplative moments with surreal, and sometimes explosive, action. I hope it can provide a real sense of journey and discovery.”
