People are SUPER into the SIDEKICKS! "Super Sidekicks delivers action, a super side-splitting good time, and proof that heroes can come from anywhere!" --Andrew McDonald and Ben Wood, creators of the Real Pigeons series "This entertaining series opener charms with bright, full-color illustrations and loads of humor. Easy-to-follow panels and action sequences keep the pages turning, and the setting of sunny Sydney, Australia, is a refreshing departure from Gotham-like locales. . . . Armed with humor and heart, these underdogs are ready to step into the spotlight." --Kirkus Reviews "A fun read for fans of adventure and superhero graphic novels. . . . A promising start to a new series that embraces friendship, action, and teamwork." --School Library Journal "A graphic novel sure to engage young, adventure-loving readers." --Herald Sun (Melbourne) "Filled with crazy comic-book fun and adventure. The series is perfect for any young reader who loves a good baddie." --West Australian "Goo is my favorite character because he's really funny. . . .
