"Oni Press has unveiled Jamie S Rich&amp;#039;s A Boy and a Girl. Artist Natalie Nourigat has joined the It Girl &amp;amp; the Atomics writer on the graphic novel.  The book centres around a love story between Travis and Charley, who must deal with the typical trials of romance in a near-future world populated with robots, flying cars and other technological wonders. The pair meet 24 hours before Charley is sent away to an unknown destination as part of a governmental programme.  &amp;quot;That post-collegiate coming-of-age feeling of not being sure you&amp;#039;ve chosen the right path is fairly universal, and it doesn&amp;#039;t necessarily go away, even as you get older,&amp;quot; said Rich. &amp;quot;Natalie and I were both sick of slacker characters, young people being shown as not doing anything because they have no ambition. We thought it would be far more interesting to show characters who really want to do something and are on the cusp of life, even if they aren&amp;#039;t sure what is going to happen next.&amp;quot; Portland, Oregon-based editor-turned-writer Rich launched his new webseries From the Gutters earlier this month. A Boy and a Girl will be released on December 11. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
