[QUOTE]“Penny Dora and the Wishing Box,” Michael Stock and Sina Grace’s new all-ages Image Comics series, has its roots in a half-page story written five years ago – by, appropriately enough, an 8-year-old.

The five-issue fantasy adventure about a young girl in suburban Southern California who finds that titular magical item at her doorstep on the day before Christmas began as a reinvention of the Pandora myth by writer Stock’s daughter, Nico.

That short story made it into her school newspaper, and Stock, founder of the longtime popular Part-Time Punks club night at the Echo in Los Angeles and host of the same-named radio show, had her read it on his KXLU-FM (88.9) program.

“I will still get calls from time to time from various people being like, ‘Whatever happened to the magic box?’” Stock told Hero Complex during a phone interview with the creative team on Tuesday.

One of those calls came at the right time to remind the writer of the tale’s possibility. After several years of teaching classes on comic book history and script-writing at CalArts, he had been let go in a round of budget cuts.

“I took that as a signal to stop teaching comics and start making comics,” he said. “I made a deal with myself that I need to get some comics made really before I can teach.”

The series’ first issue, set for a Nov. 5 release and billed as being for fans of “Coraline” and “Courtney Crumrin,” is an adaptation of Nico’s original story, and will be her father’s comics debut. It will introduce readers to Penny Dora Jefferson — a 10-year-old who artist Grace calls “a hero in the making,” the kind of kid who can do the right thing when confronted with a receptacle repeatedly beckoning, “What do you wish for?” – and her single mom, cat Iggy, friend Elizabeth (who will help things go awry), the planned community of Cuesta Verde and that mysterious box.[/QUOTE]

Très bien, si tu aimes bien les histoires sur fond de musique rock et teintées de nostalgie pour le vinyle.

Once upon a time, on the day before Christmas, a young girl named Penny Dora found a mysterious box on her front doorstep. A magic box with the power to grant wishes. But what she’s about to learn is the true (and creepy) meaning of “be careful what you wish for.” An all-ages fantasy/adventure book for fans of Coraline and Courtney Crumrin!
