A Comic Book/Graphic Novel Club Original!

Thank you to one of our junior students, Vasilios Dentiste, for sharing one of his original works with us and granting us permission to share it on the library blog. Vasilios created all of the illustrations and text for each of these panels himself, and has quite a portfolio that he recently shared with the rest of our comic book/graphic novel club members. We're all excited to see more of his artwork in the future!
