The 2000 AD ABC #52: The Journal of Luke Kirby

Move over Harry Potter – there was already a boy wizard in town. It’s time to discover some summer magic with The Journal of Luke Kirby.

Predating JK Rowling’s Potter by several years, Alan McKenzie and John Ridgway’s coming-of-age story about power, magic, and family, set in an enchanted rural England, is Cider With Rosie with Harry Potter via John Wyndham and Alan Garner – a lost gem from the second wave of 2000 AD that deals with burgeoning maturity, fear, loss, grief, the ending of innocence, and magic!
