Mia's back! But her gang of friends is changing. Mia's parents sent her to a private school this year to bring her grades up, so her only chance to see her old friends Gauthier, Louka, and Zouzou is playing video games with them after school. There's a new tenant at Wilfried's place, a geek who has an interesting relationship with oven mitts. This year also brings a new challenge for Mia: a fighting-game tournament at the local video game store, with a mysterious new opponent. And there's still that haunted house around the corner...

About the author
Vanyda
Vanyda created her first comic book at the age of six. So it's only natural that she should later go on to specialize in comic book art at the Fine Arts Academy of Tournai (Belgium). When she finished her studies in 2001, she moved to Lille with four friends from her student days: François Duprat, David Bolvin, and Rod and Nicolas Delestret.
With Duprat, Vanyda produced the trilogy "L'année du dragon" (Carabas). She also produced two other trilogies by herself: "L'immeuble d'en face" (La Boîte à bulles) and the black-and-white "Celle que...", later republished in color as "Valentine" (Dargaud; Europe Comics 2016, "Valentine").
In January 2014, Vanyda created the wonderful "Un petit goût de noisette" (Dargaud), a black and white graphic novel of love stories.
Two years later, she was back again with a new one-shot, "Entre ici et ailleurs" (Dargaud).
She's received awards at numerous comic book festivals, been nominated several times at Angouleme, and has also been recognized for the English edition of "L'immeuble d'en face" ("The Building Opposite," Fanfare/Ponent Mon), which won the manga of the year award from "Publishers Weekly." Her recent work includes the drama and humor series "Mia & Co," which follows teenager Mia and her high school friends.
