The Big List O' AiT/PlaNETLar

I'm trying something with this list that will hopefully, eventually get some more people interested in buying these graphic novels. AiT/PlaNETLar is one of the best publishing houses out there with an oeuvre that spans genres from children's fiction to superheroes to action and mystery. The publishers Larry Young and Mimi Rosenheim have discerning tastes in what they put their brand to, and it shows in the ever expanding list of creators that bring their talents to their house.

List items

1. Astronauts in Trouble: Live from the Moon

The one that started it all. Larry Young's love letter to action movies.
2. Astronauts In Trouble Space: 1959

The awesome prequel to AITLFTM.
3. Astronauts In Trouble: One Shot, One Beer
4. The Making of Astronauts In Trouble
5. Astronauts In Trouble Master Flight Plan

The best way to buy AIT if you're interested.
6. 1000 Steps to World Domination

For people who want to laugh so hard they break all their furniture. Special awesome points to anyone who gets that obscure comics reference.
