Description
SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED! Based on the popular online game Neopets comes the first in a series of graphic novels! Join Sabre-X, his Petpet Fang, a disgraced Fire Faerie with a checkered past, and all of your favorite Neopets characters in this original graphic novel that's about forgiveness, magic, and love (with classic Neopian humor laced throughout).
Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, a dinosaur of GIGANTIC proportions laid a massive egg. That egg split open, and started to bake in the sun. Ever since then, a giant omelette has been cooking on the Tyrannian Plateau. It may seem silly, but it is true.
The Giant Omelette is a staple in Neopets. Each day, hungry Neopets approach the massive, eggy monolith and manage to take a slice.
But this isn't a story about how the Giant Omelette came to be. It is the story of how we almost lost it-forever.
In this beautifully illustrated original graphic novel, readers will follow Sabre-X, a disgraced Fire Faerie named Seraphina, and their Petpets, a Reptillior and a Faellie, on an epic fantastical journey through Neopia to restore one of the most popular parts of the site. This graphic novel also includes a universal code for a new one-time-use item in the back, which can be redeemed on the Neopets website and used in the Battledome.

"For the first time in a while, I am truly optimistic on the future of Neopets in print. Good things are coming ... This book is proof that the Neopets brand is still brimming with fresh ideas, strong execution, and full of heart. " - Jellyneo (Neopets fan site) for Neopets: The Official Cookbook
"I liked it and I'm a harsh critic. " - Josh Elder (jawsch), the Grundo King
"This story was a tasty treat! Filled with suspense, humor, and Neopian lore, readers of all ages will love this heartfelt graphic novel about how the loss of a major resource can impact a society." - Brigitta Blair, artist and author of the upcoming graphic novel, Cramming
