ANT STORY SC

Biologist Jay Hosler has been making comics since the late 90s, garnering particular attention in the indie comics world with his honey bee tale Clan Apis, reworked and republished by HarperAlley in 2021 as Way of the Hive. He blends science and comics in a way which brings the subject to life, and this crawl down the tunnels of an ant colony is a perfect example of that in action. Rubi is our cartoon ant protagonist, living amongst the real ants, but unable to speak with them, until one day she finds one ant who can talk back. A funny, exciting graphic novel that’s about friendship, community and most of all, ants!
