5 Worlds #4

Three young heroes — a red-haired boy clutching a musical instrument, a blue-skinned girl in mid-sprint, and a dark-complexioned figure with teal hair carrying a small green creature — dash across ancient stone steps as a towering, grinning colossus looms in the amber-drenched sky behind them. The fourth volume in Mark Siegel, Alexis Siegel, Xanthe Bouma, Matt Rockefeller, and Boya Sun's richly imagined series, The Amber Anthem radiates the kind of urgent, world-at-stake energy that earned the series a glowing "mind-blowingly beautiful — a must-read" from R.J. Palacio. With its warm golden palette and a sprawling alien cityscape stretching to the horizon, this 2020 graphic novel is a visual treat that pulls you straight into the action.
