Percy Jackson & The Olympians #2

A group of young heroes stands their ground against a towering, nightmarish horde of creatures on Attila Futaki's atmospheric painted cover — the sheer scale of the monsters looming over the kids makes the danger feel genuinely thrilling. Robert Venditti's adaptation of Rick Riordan's The Sea of Monsters brings this beloved mythology-drenched adventure to the graphic novel format, with Tamás Gáspár's moody colors deepening every shadow and fang. At $12.99, this 2013 Hyperion release is a compelling way to dive into the world of Camp Half-Blood in a whole new visual dimension.
