Imagine a blond pixie-cut-wearing Wednesday Adams with self-awareness and minor social anxiety and you have Courtney Crumrin. At first I thought she was just going to be Gaz from Invader Zim but there's a bit more to her than that, and it makes her character all the better.

But the world Naifeh has created for Courtney to live in. This is why I rated it 5 stars. The book was created especially for me. The mignola-esque angular art depicting Courtney's forays into a world pulled from irish faerie mythology. The trouble she gets into and out of there, and the way she might unscrupulously use it to her advantage against some of the more unsavory individuals at school.

I need *all* the Courtney Crumrin.
