Join staff at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library for an open discussion of our favorite Graphic Novels. Each month, we focus on a specific theme and related graphic novel. This month’s theme is Wrestling!

This Month’s Book:

Do A Powerbomb!

By Daniel Warren Johnson and Mike Spicer

Daniel Warren Johnson weaves the heartbreaking, emotionally charged, coming-of-age tale of one girl grappling with grief, imposter syndrome, and the grit it takes to survive amongst a Thunderdome of high-stakes Wrestlemania competition.

Lona Steelrose wants to be a pro-wrestler, but she’s living under the shadow of her mother, the best to ever do it. Everything changes when a wrestling-obsessed necromancer asks her to join the grandest pro-wrestling tournament of all time, which is also the most dangerous!
