"Portions of this graphic novel appeared in Measles #2-8. This edition contains a new 24-page story"--T.p. verso.

"A rare foray into all-ages work, 'The Adventures of Venus' was Gilbert Hernandez's contribution to the kids' anthology Measles which he edited in 1999 and 2000. This super-affordable little hardcover collects all the previously uncollected 'Venus' stories from Measles in which Luba's niece creates and collects comic books, walks through a scary forest, plays soccer, schemes to get the cute boy she likes, laments the snowless-less of a California Christmas, catches measles, and travels to a distant planet (OK, the last one may be a dream). Plus a new story done just for this book!"--from Amazon.com
