With Disney’s Moana 2 making a record-breaking splash on Disney+ earlier this year—27+ million global views in its first five days—there’s never been a better time to dive back into the world of Moana, Maui, and the open ocean and that is just what readers can do with the upcoming release from Papercutz, the Mad Cave Studios imprint.
The New Adventures of Disney’s Moana 2 Vol. 1 – Born to Voyage is officially here, containing 80 pages of stories that are perfect for readers aged from 8 to 12.
These new adventures are penned by cartoonist, illustrator, art director, narrative game designer, writer, and editor of mixed indigenous ancestry Sloane Leong. Through her work, she engages with visceral futurities and fantasies through a radical, kaleidoscopic lens.
The book is illustrated by Andrea Greppi, colored by Maria Claudia Di Genova, and lettered by Chris Dickey and Charles Pritchett
