Tamaki deftly plays superhero and high-school Hollywood tropes against what adolescence is really like: The SuperMutant Magic Academy is a prep school for mutants and witches, but their paranormal abilities take a backseat to everyday teen concerns.\u003cbr\u003e Science experiments go awry, bake sales are upstaged, and the new kid at school is a cat who will determine the course of human destiny. In one strip, lizard-headed Trixie frets about her nonexistent modeling career; in another, the immortal Everlasting Boy tries to escape this mortal coil to no avail. Throughout it all, closeted Marsha obsesses about her unrequited crush, the cat-eared Wendy. Whether the magic is mundane or miraculous, Tamaki's jokes are precise and devastating.\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e SuperMutant Magic Academy\u003c\/i\u003e has won two Ignatz Awards. This volume combines the most popular content from the webcomic with a selection of all-new, never-before-seen strips that conclude Tamaki's account of life at the academy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jillian Tamaki\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1770461981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781770461987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Drawn \u0026amp; Quarterly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/28\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 6.10w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/06\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2015 pg. 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2015 pg. 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly Best Books\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/02\/2015 pg. 40","brand":"Jillian Tamaki","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44051667484927,"sku":"9781770461987","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7bef52b8-678f-4a05-a3e4-d5dc86c68af2.jpg?v=1685014457","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/supermutant-magic-academy-jillian-tamaki-9781770461987","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
