The third (and final!) year of university is finally here, and BFFs Daisy, Esther, and Susan are in for some surprising upsets in their first semester. Between Halloween run-ins with Daisy’s dreaded (dreadful) ex, part-time gigs at a shady pop-up Christmas market, Esther dating a tech-bro, and Susan attempting to be…romantic, there’s still plenty to learn and more than enough misadventure to squeeze in before it’s time to don caps and gowns!

Written by John Allison (Scary Go Round, By Night) and illustrated by the incredible Max Sarin, Giant Days volume 11 kicks off third year with a bang, collecting issues #41-44 of the Eisner Award-nominated series.

SDCC 2019: BOOM! Announces the Finale to Giant Days

Posted on July 2, 2019 by Graphic Policy Team

BOOM! Studios continues The Road to San Diego, a ten-day, ten-announcement spotlight in advance of San Diego Comic-Con 2019 in San Diego (July 17–21), with the announcement today of Giant Days: As Time Goes By #1. The oversized one-shot comic book issue concludes the Eisner Award-nominated series by creator John Allison and artist Max Sarin, giving fans one final adventure with Esther, Daisy, and Susan after they’ve graduated from Sheffield University, and will be available in stores October 30, 2019.

Where are they now? Well, fourteen months after graduation, Esther, Susan, and Daisy have moved onto different careers, friends, and lives, and it’s safe to say that things aren’t quite the same. Their reunion in Sheffield is their chance to reconnect and rebuild the close-knit best friendships they all had while at university, but Esther’s a publishing muckety muck in London now and not sure she can make time for her old friends.

Will she be able to escape the time-sucking vortex of her vampiric co-workers, the Cressidas, and their awful influence long enough to make the reunion? Will Susan and Daisy ever forgive Esther if she doesn’t show up? Is this the absolute end for our favorite Sheffielders? And what’s McGraw doing all day at the local key shop? So many questions, so little time As Time Goes By in this double-sized special finale issue.

Giant Days: As Time Goes By #1 features a main cover and variant cover by artist Max Sarin.

Giant Days #52

In a follow-up to Holiday Special 2017, Esther goes for a job interview in London and reunites with her old friend Shelley Winters. While Esther covets Shelley’s metropolitan existence, Shelley is already tired of the rat race and her high pressure civil service job, and longs to publish brain-rotting books. So while Shelly tries to prepare Esther for her interview, Esther steers Shelley towards a glittering future among the literati!

John Allison, Sarah Stern, and Jim Campbell Take Us Into the Morally Grey World of Steeple this September

Posted on May 31, 2019 by Graphic Policy Team

Artist and writer John Allison colorist Sarah Stern, and letterer Jim Campbell welcome you to Steeple, a land where the world isn’t as black and white as it may appear.

Tredregyn Parish – in a sleepy Cornish coastal town fabled for its cursed origins, a newly arrived vicar quickly befriends another local priest, before realizing that they serve very different masters. Beset on all sides by witchcraft, the Church of Satan, battling Reverends, officious housekeepers and the ever-present sons of the sea, Billie Baker and Maggie Warren must balance the war between good and evil with the needs of their parishioners. After all, this town has supernatural problems that a nice cup of tea won’t fix.

Steeple #1 (of 5) arrives in comic shops on September 18, 2019.
