NewsPrints is the gorgeous debut graphic novel from Ru Xu that follows Blue, an orphan who has disguised herself as a newsboy so she can continue working for the Bugle, the only paper in town that tells the truth about the war.
The book hits stores next Tuesday, and in honor of its impending release, @GraphixBooks (our graphic novel imprint) hosted a Twitter takeover: Each hour on Saturday, @GraphixBooks tweeted a new panel from NewsPrints to give readers a sneak peek of Blue meeting a mysterious boy named Crow!
We've rounded up all of the panels here, but be sure to also check out #NewsPrintsTakeover to see more conversation!
Welcome! Spend the day with us as we reveal an exclusive excerpt of #NewsPrints by @ruemxu every hour! #NewsPrintsTakeover pic.twitter.com/usXSEVcUaX
