Could you follow your dreams if the whole world was against you? Gunhild dreams of becoming a real-life god, and everyone everywhere thinks itâs a terrible idea made up by a petulant twelve-year-old.In the world of Norse mythology, humans revere the mighty gods and fear the mystical, nature-wielding Jotuns, and Gunhild is a fire Jotun. Abandoned by her own kind and raised in a human girlsâ orphanage, Gunhild wishes to prove to her peers that sheâs more than a little troublemaker. Every step of the way, it becomes clear that Gunhild must fight for whatâs right and follow her own sense of justice, seeing as no one else will fight for her. Gunhildâs quest leads her to meet all the famous gods sheâs heard about in schools, like Odin and Thor, though the one sheâs most interested in is the mischievous Jotun god Loki, whoâs chained up in a cave hidden in a location known only by the gods. Her travels lead mainly to many foes, but a few enemies become friends, persuaded by Gunhildâs unwavering determination and burning passion for her own cause. Being a tiny Jotun against a big, powerful world, Gunhild must fight smart and learn a trick or two from Loki to earn the title of godhood. Certainly, Gunhild will stop at nothing to forge her own fantastic path and make her dream come true.Gunhild is rated Y for Youth, recommended for ages 10 and up.  Saturday AM, the worldâs most diverse manga-inspired comics, are now presented in a new format!
