The genre-defining graphic novel from ND Stevenson celebrates its tenth anniversary with a special edition, featuring dazzling special effects and bonus content.
Nimona is an impulsive young shapeshifter with a knack for villainy. Lord Ballister Blackheart is a villain with a vendetta. As sidekick and supervillain, Nimona and Lord Blackheart are about to wreak some serious havoc. Their mission: Prove to the kingdom that Sir Ambrosius Goldenloin and his buddies at the Institution of Law Enforcement and Heroics aren’t the heroes everyone thinks they are.
But as small acts of mischief escalate into a vicious battle, Lord Blackheart realizes that Nimona’s powers are as murky and mysterious as her past. And her unpredictable wild side might be more dangerous than he is willing to admit.
Nemeses! Dragons! Science! Symbolism! After a decade, everyone's favorite shapeshifter continues to capture hearts.
Nimona has taken many forms: a beloved and critically acclaimed web comic, a staple in comic bookshelves everywhere, and an award-winning Netflix film. This celebratory edition includes a letter from the author and behind-the-scenes art.
“[Stevenson’s] voice is clear and precise, [his] drawings confident, [his] use of color growing in depth and assurance as the story progresses.” — New York Times “Over the course of the collected Nimona, it’s possible to watch artist [ND] Stevenson blossom from a student to a superstar.” — NPR.org “Nimona, with all her flaws, breaks away completely from what women are allowed to be in popular fiction.” — Vanity Fair “Funny and vibrant, with wonderful energy in Stevenson’s illustrations and a wicked wit in [his] storytelling.” — Slate "Filled with memorable character that will delight teen readers." — CNN “If you’re going to read one graphic novel this year, make it this one.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Sharp visuals, a nifty amalgam of fantasy and science fiction elements, and relationships drawn with complexity, wit, and depth create a world worth returning to again and again.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) “At its core, Nimona is a story of rescue. Each of the main characters rescue allies, friendships, the Kingdom, and ultimately, themselves… A vibrant solo work.” — School Library Journal (starred review) “Nimona…is beautifully flawed and refreshingly unstereotypical in a book that is both darkly witty and surprisingly touching. And Nimona is a protagonist to both love and fear.” — The Horn Book “Graphic novel fans will finish the book in a gallop and then want to start right back at the first page.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review) “[ND] Stevenson has a knack for capturing the humor and heart in a situation in just a few panels.” — Adelaide Advertiser “Awesome and adorable.” — Ryan North, author of Dinosaur Comics "From its first panel, Nimona draws you into a narrative combining shark jokes, a shadowy institution and a startling amount of heart. So whether you’re young or old, a comics newbie or a seasoned veteran, make the decision to explore the fantastical world Stevenson has created. You won’t regret it." — Paste Magazine
