Reader review of "The Many Misfortunes of Eugenia Wang" by Stan Yan

"This graphic novel masterfully captures the middle school experience. My almost 12-year old [said it was] 'so good'... might be my favorite cover design ever. Clearly, a lot of thought and detail went into the making of this book.”

Panel 1: Peter, Patty, Terry the Tapeworm, and Spectra sit around the kitchen table playing a board game that looks like a cross between Monopoly and Risk. Peter points at the empty table in front of Terry and says, “That’s my property, Terry, and you’re out of money!"

Panel 2: Terry confidently responds, “I’ll pay you in my newly-minted TerryCoin.” Peter rolls his eyes, “What?”

Panel 3: Terry tells Peter, “Check your crypto wallet.” Patty asks Terry, “Crypto wallet? Where’s that?"

Panel 4: Terry says, It’s the invisible thing by the Gulf of Terry."

Panel 1: Caption: "First day of a new school year.” Peter walks into a room with a narrow door followed by the conjoined twins, Cat and Tam who haven’t walked in yet because they’re wider than the opening. Tam says, “Is THIS the room?"

Panel 2: The twins rotate and sidestep into the room, Tam first. Tam says, “Why don’t we go sideways?” Sound effect of the school bell: “BRRRRRRRING!"

Panel 3: Similar to the previous panel, but the witch teacher approaches with a clipboard, “Tam Fortune?"

Panel 4: The twins have finally both come through the doorway. Tam says with a raised hand, “Here!” The teacher says, “Check. But Cat Fortune, you’re TARDY.” Cat is upset, “Hey...!"

Reader review of "The Many Misfortunes of Eugenia Wang" by Stan Yan

"A Spooky, Heartfelt Story About Finding Your Voice... The art is engaging and the story balances humor with genuinely creepy moments. As a parent, I appreciated how it explores cultural identity and the tension between honoring your heritage while finding your own path. Perfect for fans of Remy Lai's Ghost Book.”

Peter Cadaver by Stan Yan

Panel 1: Patty and Peter walk into school on the first day of school after Summer break. Belanie looks up at Patty in surprise, "Patty, how'd you get so tall?" Patty says, "I had a growth spurt."

Panel 2: Francie walks in looking taller too. Peter says, "Looks like you're not the only one." Francie says, "What up, shrimps?"

Panel 3: Belanie asks Peter, "When are we going to grow, Peter?" Peter says, "I think it's up to Dad." Patty pats Peter on the head, "Everyone grows at different times."

Panel 4: Cat and Tam, the conjoined twins walk in to the unsetttled surprise of Patty, Peter, and Belanie. Tam is taller than Cat, so she's dragging Cat along behind her, which she doesn't look too happy about. Tam says, "I'm tall!" Cat grumbles, "This stinks."

My contribution to #AugustAdventures2026week2 is a fake book cover for a biography about Charles Darwin's daughter, #HenriettaDarwin. I was inspired to draw this after reading a recent article about her interest in foraging for phallic-shaped mushrooms. #AugustAdventures #AugustAdventures2026

Mock cover art by Stan Yan for a book entitled, "Loose Morels: The Foraging Passions of Henrietta Darwin" by N.F. Biographer. The illustration shows a drawing of Darwin with a sunhat on and a covered basket spying some phallic-shaped fungi that have black censor bars over them that the subtitle is written over.

Peter Cadaver by Stan Yan

Panel 1: Patty walks into Dad's mad scientist laboratory and asks him, "Can you take me to get a haircut?" Dad replies, "No, no. Let's save some money, and I'll give you one." Patty says, "Really?"

Panel 2: Dad brandishes a pair of scissors and says, "I'm an old pro." Patty nervously says, "I don't know. I need a little trim. You tend to get carried away." Dad says, "You're being silly. Trust me."

Panel 3: Caption: "8 hours later." Spot of Patty sporting a new haircut, a ginger bob with short bangs. She looks happy.

Panel 4: Peter looks aghast, "Patty! What happened to you? You're so tall!" Patty is much taller than normal and has certain body parts that are now also blue, in contrast to her normal green hue. She says, "Dad gave me extensions."

Patty Cadaver by Stan Yan

Panel 1: Patty Cadaver and Terry the Tapeworm enjoy a record playing on an old-timey turntable. Terry says, "Catchy tune!"

Panel 2: Close up of a green worm popping out of Patty's ear much to Terry's surprise. The green worm says, "Indeed!" Terry asks, "Who are you?!"

Panel 3: The green worm says, "I'm Patty's ear worm. I'm who makes this song catchy." Terry jealously says, "Oh yeah?! I'm Patty's tapeworm..."

Panel 4: Terry shrinks in embarrassment, "I'm who makes her extra hungry...?" The green worm stoically says, "How noble."

Peter Cadaver by Stan Yan

Panel 1: Patty Cadaver walks through the school hallways under the judgemental eyes of the giggling witch students staring at Terry The Tapeworm, who pokes out from between stitches in her face. Patty whispers, "Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to bring you to school, Terry." Terry says, "Why? Are pets not allowed here? Just tell them I'm a SERVICE tapeworm."

Panel 2: Patty whispers, "I'm thinking that people think you're GROSS." Terry indignantly responds, "Who cares what THEY think? It's what YOU think that matters, right?"

Panel 3: Francie Johnston calls out sarcastically to Patty, "Your parasite is ADORABLE, Patty! Ha, ha."

Panel 4: Terry proudly states, "See! I'm ADORABLE!" Patty angrily says, "Who cares what THEY think?"

Last Man on Earth by Stan Yan

An armed bearded prepper pops out of his shelter, sad to be surrounded by nothing but death and destruction.
