Giant Days Returns in a Deluxe Hardcover From BOOM!

BOOM! Studios has announced the first of seven sturdy hardcovers collecting the entirety of the Eisner Award-winning slice-of-life comic series written by John Allison and illustrated by Lissa Treiman and Max Sarin with Giant Days Library Edition Vol. 1, collecting the first eight issues of the hit series!

The school year is just beginning at Sheffield University, jam-packed with new classes, professors, and places to explore… not to mention new clubs, cliques, and shenanigans galore! 

For first years Daisy, Esther, and Susan, they’ve got new friends on lock, forming a tight bond from their first days as next-dorm neighbors. But learning to navigate life as brand new (almost) adults isn’t as easy as it looks.

Between old nemeses popping up, academic struggles, and new crushes on the horizon, it’s a good thing these three have each other to help survive Hall Balls, bantering lads, and drama vortexes (vortices?)!

The Giant Days Library Edition Vol. 1 collects the first eight issues of the Eisner Award-winning and Harvey Award-nominated series, along with an issue of the original webcomic and a brand new educational guide, all in a sturdy, deluxe hardcover! It will be available in comic shops August 23, 2023 and in bookstores September 5, 2023. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers, including comiXology, iBooks, Google Play, and Kindle.

College is a time of trials and tribulations, and not all of Esther, Susan, and Daisy’s made it into the main Giant Days series of college shenanigans.

Head back to school with Esther, Susan, and Daisy in this collection of shorts and bonus material from the Eisner Award-nominated series Giant Days.

Experience the “universally beloved” terror Desmond Fishman, the magic of London at Christmas, and that one unfortunately unforgettable experience of the girls’ first music festival.

Features a special “what-if” story in which Susan, Esther, and Daisy never became friends!
