Ile Gonzalez illustrated her first comic strip while in kindergarten, and grew up to study fashion design in college. Deciding that graphic storytelling was her first true love, she refocused her creative effort and landed her first paid work at the digital storytelling company Madefire, working exclusively for them to co-create their popular middle-grade series The Heroes Club. Super Sons is her first graphic novel, and her first project for DC.
Ridley Pearson knocks it out of the park with this supersonic tale. --Eoin Colfer, author of the Artemis Fowl series Precocious, poignant, and powerful!... I hope you packed a lunch, because you're not gonna want to put this book down. --Joey Bragg, actor from the Disney Channel's Liv and Maddie As the breathtaking action unfolds, the mysteries pile up--and there is danger on every page. My kind of story! I want to see more, more, MORE! --R.L. Stine, author of Goosebumps and Fear Street Pearson integrates timely elements through the focus on climate change and allusions to the refugee experience, while Gonzalez's artwork is vivid and crisp, riffing on a classic comic style.
