![]() ![]() Kind of like Riverdale and Archie, but with far less Easter Eggs. ![]() The thing is, it's less a Nancy Drew story-in terms of her personality and know-how, I mean-and more a modern noir story starring teenagers from various Stratemeyer Syndicate series. I'd recommend borrowing it from the library over buying it, but I read all six issues this morning, so clearly it kept my interest. In it, Fenton Hardy is MURDERED and Frank, Joe, and Nancy team up to solve the case! The first issue isn't out until mid-June, though-yes, OBVIOUSLY I have it pre-ordered-so I picked up Anthony Del Col's Nancy Drew & the Hardy Boys: The Big Lie to tide me over. Now, Dynamite Entertainment offers the latest rendition of the cracker-jack teen sleuth with a comic that fully realizes Nancy’s feminist tendencies, adds several characters who are people of color, and finally, unmistakably queers perpetual “tomboy” George. Since the titian-haired girl detective from River Heights cracked her first mystery in The Secret of the Old Clock nearly 90 years ago, there have been dozens of iterations of Nancy Drew and her best friends, Bess and George, featured in books, TV, and films. We have new and used copies available, in 1 editions - starting at 2.99. I don't know about you, but I am OVER THE MOON about the news that A) there's a new Nancy Drew comic in the works, and that B) Kelly Thompson is writing it: Buy Nancy Drew: The Palace of Wisdom by Kelly Thompson, Jenn St Onge online at Alibris. ![]()
