Here is the cover to my first full-length graphic novel as both writer and artist. It's called Astronaut Academy: Zero Gravity and will be published by :01 First Second Books in June 2011.
The cover was designed with Colleen AF Venable. The actual thing is printed on silver foil and will look way cooler than can ever be represented on the internet! It will be real space object!
I've been working on this Astronaut Academy graphic novel for several years, so I'm excited to have it finally come out! It's a bit of quirky book, but I really hope that people like it! Any help in spreading the word is sincerely appreciated!
Here is the summary that will appear on the back cover:
Hakata Soy’s past life as the leader of a futuristic super team won’t stay in the past!
The former space hero is doing his best to keep his head down at Astronaut Academy. Things aren’t going so great, though. The most popular girl in school has it out for him. His best friend won’t return his calls. And his new roommate is a complete jock who only cares about Fireball.
Hakata just wants to make a fresh start. But how will he find time to study Anti-Gravity Gymnastics and Tactical Randomness when he’s got a robot doppelganger on its way to kill him?

I'll be posted some art from inside the book soon! Cheers!
