It has a lot of adventures in it which makes it exciting. If you are a comic book lover, then you'll love these books." His mother says, "This series absolutely captivated my son and was single-handedly responsible for helping him catch the reading bug. The 'to be continued' format meant that he couldn't wait to read on. The one challenge to the fact that your child won't want ...
