Astrid Johnson thinks of herself as a fairly typical teen.

Jamie McKelvie is half the creative team behind Phonogram. Here he shows that in addition to being a top talent artist, he can also craft a damn good story. Suburban Glamour is a quick and highly enjoyable mash-up of Urban Fantasy and Teen Coming of Age stories. Plus, of course, its really, really pretty to look at...
