The school year is just beginning at Sheffield University, jam-packed with new classes, professors, and places to explore… not to mention new clubs, cliques, and shenanigans galore! For first years Daisy, Esther, and Susan, they’ve got new friends on lock, forming a tight bond from their first days as next-dorm neighbors. But learning to navigate life as brand new (almost) adults isn’t as easy as it looks. Between old nemeses popping up, academic struggles, and new crushes on the horizon, it’s a good thing these three have each other to help survive Hall Balls, bantering lads, and drama vortexes (vortices?)! The Giant Days Library Edition Volume 1, written by John Allison (Wicked Things, Steeple) and illustrated by Lissa Treiman (Minötar) and Max Sarin (Harley Quinn: The Animated Series: The Eat Bang Kill Tour) collects the first eight issues of the Eisner Award-winning and Harvey Award-nominated series, along with an issue of the original webcomic, all in a sturdy, deluxe hardcover. Collects Giant Days #1-8.
Based in Letchworth Garden City, UK, John Allison is the creator of the comic series Giant Days, By Night, and Steeple, and of the ongoing all-ages book series Bad Machinery. In addition, he created the webcomics Bobbins and Scary Go Round, with his work appearing online since 1998. He was one of the first comic artists to build a daily following exclusively on the internet.
John's various comics have been nominated for Eisner Awards every year from 2016-2019, and in 2018 he won the Best Long-Form Online Comic award from the US National Cartoonists’ Society. Giant Days has sold almost half a million copies worldwide and is currently being published in seven foreign language editions.
