Magic do-gooder (or troublemaker, depending on who you ask) Amelia Cole is back, and this time, she's The Protector! What is The Hidden War? Who are Omega Company? And is the Protector cloak as itchy as it looks?

For Kacee, a queer Black girl in middle school, everything feels like a struggle. Her parents take out their personal issues on her, classes are a challenge, her crush is clueless about her feelings, and her two best friends are always at odds. When Kacee fails a class as a result of her stress and ends up in summer school, she starts to wonder why she even bothers trying—and ultimately begins to discover her own power to improve the things in her life she can control, and try to let go of what she can’t. From writer Adam P. Knave (The Once and Future Queen) and artist Valentine Barker, with letters by Frank Cvetkovic (Punch-Up), The Airless Year is a story of self-discovery and empowerment about taking control where you can, and learning to let the rest go.

Amelia Cole and the Unknown World is also available as part of the Amelia Cole Omnibus. Amelia Cole lives in two worlds — literally. One runs on magic; the other is built on technology. When the barriers between both worlds start to break down, Amelia and her Aunt Dani must take extreme action. It's the start of a whole new world in adventure, magic, and excitement as Amelia Cole steps forward to do what she knows is right, even when the consequences might be wrong. Now all six issues of Amelia Cole and the Unknown World — written by Eisner and Harvey award winners Adam P. Knave and D.J. Kirkbride, drawn by Nick Brokenshire, and lettered by Rachel Deering — are collected in print for the first time!

Amelia Cole navigates a unique blend of science and magic, ultimately finding herself in a world dominated by mages. As she confronts social injustice and faces whimsical challenges like giant corgis and demon muggers, an ancient darkness looms, threatening all realms. With her trusty magic pipe wrench, the eight-foot techno-golem Lemmy, and a cast of quirky allies, Amelia embarks on a mission to protect both mages and non-mages, bringing hope to a fractured society. This collection compiles the entire acclaimed series.
