Event Details
Join us in the 2nd Floor Auditorium at the Main Branch as we discuss the first volume in Rick Remender's graphic novel series -- Deadly Class: Reagan Youth, now a television series on the Syfy network! (Catch -up Pup: We will also be using the last half of our meeting to discuss ongoing series read in previous meetings, such as Monstress, The Beauty, and Injection so be sure to stop by!)
It’s 1987. Marcus Lopez hates school. His grades suck. The jocks are hassling his friends. He can’t focus in class. But the jocks are the children of Joseph Stalin’s top assassin, the teachers are members of an ancient league of assassins, the class he's failing is “Dismemberment 101,” and his crush has a double-digit body count. Welcome to the most brutal high school on earth, where the world’s top crime families send the next generation of assassins to be trained. Murder is an art. Killing is a craft. At Kings Dominion School for the Deadly Arts, the dagger in your back isn’t always metaphorical.
