KISS MACHINE PRESENTS...
SKIM: A graphic tale from the diary of Skim Takota.
ON SALE IN JUNE!
Written by Mariko Tamaki (www.marikotamkaki.com)
Illustrated by Jillian Tamaki (www.jilliantamaki.com)
It's 1992. The jocks are suicidal, the popular girls are in mourning,
and the goths are bored.
It seems like everyone is freaking out, except for 16-year-old suburban
witch Skim Takota and her best friend Lisa. It's a weird time to fall in
love, but a witch has to do what a witch has to do.
The second Kiss Machine Presents... publication is a 24-page excerpt
from Skim's diary--a gothic romance for geeky goths and the people who
love them.
