ISBN: 9781606994429.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA treasure map leads to an island with a terrible secret in Jason’s new graphic novel. Five years ago, little Gwenny’s father found, inside a bottle, a map with instructions on how to reach the mysterious Isle of 100,000 Graves and its legendary treasures ― and then he vanished. Now Gwenny, having stumbled across another bottle-shipped map, enlists the dubious help of a shipful of pirates, sets out to find the island, and her long-lost dad.\n\nLittle does she realize that the Isle comes by its ominous name honestly, as the location of a secret school for executioners and torturers, where apple-cheeked youngsters are taught the finer points of extracting information from prisoners… and then putting an end to their lives in a wide variety of gruesome ways. And they’ve reached the point in their studies where theory should ideally give way to practice, so an influx of uninvited visitors comes as a blessing to the faculty.\n\nAnd yes, this story is a comedy. Albeit a dark one.\n\nFor the first time in his career, Jason has enlisted a writer: Fabien Vehlmann. (Vehlmann has written a number of graphic novels for the French and American markets, including an installment of the legendary Spirou series and the three-volume Green Manor continuity, of which two volumes have been released in English.) Vehlmann has managed to interiorize Jason’s deadpan style and wit perfectly, creating a uniquely smooth and successful collaboration. 56 pages of full-color comics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fantagraphics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946867814453,"sku":"ByrdShop_1606994425","price":34.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781606994429_86dca538-e75a-4ccd-823e-c9f98ea17471.jpg?v=1778823908","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/isle-of-100000-graves-gn-9781606994429","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
