Nancy Drew is babysitting Owen when a thunderstorm hits River Heights. As a result, a truck jackknifes and a SUV crashes into the truck. Just so happens, this accident happened near Nancy’s charge’s home. Charlie Adams, a tow truck driver and good friend of Nancy’s, calls in a favor of Nancy: he wants to bring the SUV driver by because he has precious cargo that he refuses to part with.

When Charlie arrives with Professor David Severe, an archeologist, he informs Nancy he has proof the Chinese we...more

This book was a great surprise to learn about and see that Nancy Drew was carrying on as a graphic novel now. While I wasn't too keen on the art style, I still sucked it up and enjoyed it. The story was good, but Nancy was a bonehead! She was so absent minded and forgetful, this was nothing like the real Nancy Drew in the main series. I was disappointed about that, but it was still a fun read.
One other thing I am wondering about is where the heck is Helen Corning? Nancy seems to only be hanging...more

I decided to read a few more graphic novels. These Nancy Drew graphic novels are kind of fun because they mesh together the classic Nancy Drew series with the upcoming graphic novel genre. I like watching how the authors and illustrators work together to create the authenticity of the books.
This story is about a stone that is stolen. At the same time a boy goes missing. Nancy is certain that the two disappearances are connected. I have not finished it quite yet so I am in no danger of giving aw...more

My first graphic novel. And Nancy Drew stories are just so fun.

I was pretty surprised when I found out that Nancy Drew, the classic girl detective novel, had been revamped into a modern day teen graphic novel. I have to admit though; it was a pretty fun read. Nancy still has her wit, smarts, and curiosity, plus now a hybrid car, a cell phone, and a keen sense of 21st century style. Reading the story was just like watching an episode of Veronica Mars, another smart and fashionable high school detective. I would use these graphic novels as a way to get reluct...more

A graphic novel based on Nancy Drew! Alright!!! I was skeptical, but since I grew up reading Nancy Drew, and I love comics...I had to try it out. What a fun series! The girl sleut is thoroughly modern and a great tweenie read, although I think my 1st grader will like it too. I had to read it first, but now I'm passing it along. What fun!

These comic books are really stupid and don't really tell the story.
