Courtney Crumrin Stories by Ted Naifeh
Requirements: CBR Reader, 884 MB.
Overview: Courtney is an odd little girl who doesn't quite fit in. When she is shipped off to her uncle's, she must adjust to a whole new school in a neighborhood she isn't entirely comfortable with; however, things quickly take a turn for the better, as she meets the strange and interesting individuals that live in and around her uncle's house. Soon it's clear that she's better off hanging with the Night Things than she is with the stuck-up kids at her school. It's adolescent angst vs. scary spooks, adding up to excellent entertainment.

      In a world inhabited by goblins and corrupt magicians, someone's gotta set it right! Courtney moves in to her uncles house-a huge mansion in a town populated by wizards, with her parents,who seem to care more about social status than their kid! As she tries to navigate through middle school life by day, her nights are filled with magic lessons from her uncle, Aloysius Crumrin, and team ups with the goblins waging wars in the town's backyard.

Genre: Comics, Young Adults, Adventures, Fantasy, Horror, Humour, Digital.

It's a lot harder to fight a battle when the only family you care about is against you, and Courtney's only salvation may lie in the Twilight Kingdom-and away from the mortal world. But Aloysius won't give up his niece so easily-even if he has to fight the night creatures to do it.
