Cleopatra in Space

In Cleopatra in Space, Mike Maihack reimagines the young queen of Egypt as a time-lost student at a futuristic academy, blending ancient history with sci-fi adventure. Published by Scholastic since 2014, this all-ages series follows Cleo as she navigates school, friendship, and a looming alien threat, all while Maihack's lively, cartoonish art brings the action to life. A fresh, accessible entry point for young readers, it stands out for its clever premise and creator-driven consistency across its six-issue run.
