This week on the Capes and Tights Podcast, Justin Soderberg welcomes Jennie Wood to the show to discuss their original graphic novel Paper Planes and more!

Jennie Wood is a non-binary author and musician currently living in Boston. They created the critically acclaimed, award-winning Flutter graphic novel series. Featured in The New York Times, Boston Globe, and on Law & Order: SVU, Flutter was named one of the best LGBTQ graphic novels of 2013 and 2015 by The Advocate. In November 2018, Dark Horse published The Flutter Collection, all three volumes combined into one book. That collection won the Next Generation Indie Book award for best graphic novel.

Jennie is also the author of the YA novel, A Boy Like Me, which was a Next Generation Indie Book awards finalist, an INDIEFAB Book of the Year finalist, and one of Foreword Reviews’ 10 Best Indie YA novels for 2014. Their work can be seen in several anthologies, including The New York Times best-selling, award-winning FUBAR anthologies, The New York Times best-selling and Eisner award-winning anthology Love is Love, the Harvey-nominated 27, A Comic Anthology, and John Carpenter’s Tales for a HalloweeNight.

Wood is set to release their newest original graphic novel, Paper Planes, at Mad Cave Studios's young adult imprint Maverick. The book hits bookstores everywhere on July 18, 2023 and at local comic shops on July 19.
