Sardine in Outer Space by Emmanuel Guilbert & Joann Sfar will also be a multi-volume series, but aimed at young readers. The book collects short, silly stories that feature Sardine, a little girl who dresses like a witch, travels around in space with her pirate uncle and trouble-making cousin Little Louie, and gets into goofy adventures battling Supermuscleman, a comical bad guy who wants to capture all the children of the universe. As a comic for very young readers, it has plenty of funny visuals and easy plots. In one, the group has to win a dance contest...

In fact, they do nearly everything in purposeful slow motion, including but not limited to playing drums, waving their arms about aimlessly, and running their fingers through the tendrils of ferns.

Despite a few oddities--it's home to both the oldest living Hoosier and the world's tallest woman--it is an otherwise pleasantly unremarkable town. The capital is just a short drive away, but miles of rust-colored farmland, mainly cornfields waiting for seed, give the area a rural tinge. Most people live in single-family houses with yards and fences. Not many of them are very well off, but there...
