Zita pushes a big, red button on a strange device; a porthole immediately opens, and an alien's springy tentacles suck her friend Joseph through to another world. Zita follows after Joseph and soon meets--and befriends--a hodgepodge of extraterrestrials. Hatke mixes loads of humor into his sci-fi graphic novel. His illustrations, in muted shades, capture the fast-paced action and comical antics.
