From the author of the New York Times bestselling Jedi Academy books comes the first in a hilarious space-themed graphic novel series about a floating classroom and the students who show human and alien kids alike have a flair for finding mischief and know how to have a BLAST!

Jide and Petra are just two normal kids until they are selected to leave Earth and join their new alien classmates on an intergalactic research mission to Mars. Too bad Petra has no idea how she ended up in the program, seeing as the closest she wants to get to space is being a sci-fi writer. Jide, on the other hand, is the brains of the mission, but his helicopter parents make it clear he hasn't left their gravitational pull behind quite yet.

What is meant to be an intra-species bonding experience soon turns to hijinx as the kids discover The Potato orbiting around their new space classroom and accidentally launch a mission of their own without any adult commanders around to supervise--or help!

From New York Times bestselling author Jeffery Brown comes an out-of-this-world adventure perfect for the astronaut-in-training in your life.

About the author

Jeffrey Brown

Jeffrey Brown is an Eisner Award-winning cartoonist best known for his internationally acclaimed Star Wars books, including Jedi Academy and the New York Times #1 bestseller Darth Vader and Son. A lifelong comics fan, Brown was pursuing his MFA at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago when he abandoned painting to write and draw his first graphic memoir, Clumsy. Since then, he has created dozens of comics and graphic novels for both adults and children, directed an animated video for the band Death Cab for Cutie, co-wrote the screenplay of the film Save The Date, and exhibited his artwork at galleries in New York, Los Angeles, Paris, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Brown lives in Chicago with his wife and sons, along with their dog, and, of course, cat.
