      A cross-Atlantic collaboration, Hobo Mom was drawn simultaneously. Both cartoonists’ clean line styles fit together perfectly to tell the story of Tom, who lives a simple life with his pre-teen daughter, Sissy. Her mother, Natasha, who left to hop trains and has become a vagrant, shows up on the doorstep of the family she abandoned years ago. There, Natasha finds an upset husband (who is still deeply in love with her), and a little girl yearning for a mother. Can someone who covets independence settle down?

      Forsman has expanded the 2018 first edition, which sold out quickly in the wake of the success of the Netflix adaptation of his graphic novel The End of the Fxxxing World , to include over 20 new pages as well as a new cover. Coming to Netflix in 2020, from the production team behind  Stranger Things  and the director of  The End of the Fucking World ! With Charles Forsman's hit graphic novel  The End of the Fucking World  already turned into a hit Netflix series, 2020 will see the Netflix debut of the series adaptation of another Forsman classic,  I Am Not Okay With This , starring Sophia Lillis ( It ) as Sydney! Sydney seems like a normal 15-year-old freshman. She hangs out underneath the bleachers, listens to music in her friend’s car, and gets into arguments with her annoying little brother ― but she also has a few secrets she’s only shared in her diary. Like how she’s in love with her best friend, Dina; the bizarreness of her father's death; and last but not least, there's those painful telekinetic powers that keep popping up at the most inopportune times. Forsman expertly channels teenage ethos and ennui in a style that evokes classic comic strips while telling a powerful story about the intense, and sometimes violent, tug of war between trauma and control.  Black & white illustrations throughout.

      Follows James and Alyssa, two teenagers living a seemingly typical teen experience as they face the fear of coming adulthood. Forsman tells their story through each character's perspective, jumping between points of view with each chapter. But quickly, this somewhat familiar teenage experience takes a more nihilistic turn as James's character exhibits a rapidly forming sociopathy that threatens both their futures.
