"Thank you so much for the support. It's wild that a gallery that I literally dreamed up has grown to be such a big part of the arts community in Seattle. And that we now support not just local artists, but hundreds of artists from all over the world. That being said, 2020 has been a rough year. And I'm definitely missing our annual anniversary party where I get to celebrate with all of you. We've been lucky to negotiate our rent down to a point where we can exist, but there are other expenses we are struggling to cover. You can help keep us around in a variety of ways below. 

Wear your masks, stay at home, and we'll hope for an 8 year celebration with all of you."

Review by Maxx

It's been a while of looking at the ATGR books on the shelves and the guilt of not having actually read them finally got to me. When they were brought it I flipped through them and loved the covers. I'm glad we have 4 issues now. The story starts off a bit rocky for those of us that didn't follow the webcomic. I like a story that doesn't feel the need to explain everything to the reader, but I felt like I was left guessing for the first two issues. ATGR follows Scout as she crash lands back on Earth after having only known life in a colony on Titan. Miles Greb notes in the back of the issues that all attempts have been made to make the stories scientifically accurate and invites questions or corrections. I enjoyed #4 the most, the story finally is taking on more of a plot than just chance encounters and characters beyond Scout develop depth. I also enjoyed the cleaner lines of Elli Puukangas work and hope that we get to see more in following issues. 

Definitely recommended for the scientists in your life - young and old. This book is appropriate for all ages.

Book: Iceland is Niceland by Joan Chao

I found this comic to be well-written. I honestly loved the cute way it was drawn. Also, the colors in the whole comic were done beautifully.

Book: Baggage Claime by Levi Hastings

I thought this one was drawn very beautifully and the images of animals and scenery were spectacular. The stories are great - fun, cute and heart-warming.

Book: Catboy by Benji Nate (Silver Sprocket)
Reviewer: Lucy L, teen reviewer

Catboy has a wonderful, whimsical art style and the stories are adorable. Even though the book seems silly from the outside, it actually has a lot of real-life stories hidden within. Not to mention a lot of really cute outfits.

Book: The Wizard 2 by Brandon Lehmann
Reviewer: Madison C, teen reviewer

This book is the good kush. It is about a magical wizard with powers beyond those of you and me, but it is honest and relatable all the same. If you're looking for a funny book with love, ants, magic and soul-stealing fiddle battles, this is the one.
