Introducing, the longest full-colour, original graphic novel ever published. Set in the year 2717 where most humans live on off-world colonies. It’s massive at 3600 pages. Endorsed by Harrison Ford and Ridley Scott, you know you have got something good in your hands. Turn on your Internet enabled smart phone; download the augmented reality app, point it at the book and the characters literally lift of the page! Bit expensive, but a good investment. 3 out of 5

Back to the future, Blondie, Spectrum and the Goonies. What have they in common? The 80’s! The geek chic decade is littered throughout this book. The year is 2044, and a 1980’s obsessed multi-billionaire has died and left his fortune to anyone who can solve the clues hidden within a virtual reality game which everyone on the planet plays so as to escape the reality of a dying Earth. It’s Willy Wonka meets The Matrix. 4 out of 5.
