A Midsummer Night's Dream #[nn]

Shakespeare's enchanting comedy gets the graphic novel treatment from Yomtov and Muñiz, and the cover sets the mood beautifully — a mischievous, pointed-eared fairy figure gazes out with glowing green eyes while cradling a cluster of softly sparkling red blossoms in cupped hands, with dark, leafy woods looming behind him. The manga-influenced art by Berenice Muñiz gives this 2012 Capstone adaptation a fresh, otherworldly energy that feels perfectly suited to the play's blend of magic and mayhem. A genuinely appealing entry point for readers discovering Shakespeare through sequential art.
