Book Description
SKYE is the storm-tossed comic character out for revenge on the author who murdered his family. JACE is the math-loving #blerd trying to escape his father's deadly legacy. When their worlds collide, Jace must choose between the real world he's always hated, and the comic book world he's always loved - and Skye must decide if killing his author will save his world...or damn his soul. This special edition showcases full-color comics illustrated by Annie Chen - creating lines between the real world, and the comic book world for the hero to escape. Inside each copy you will find the unsolved literary cipher of the century, designed by mathematics PhD Daniel Weingard; BECOMING HERO was a semi-finalist in the nationwide cinematic novel competition, and both of the voice actors for the audiobook have won performance awards. Why so meta? Skye's a comic book superhero with a gun in his hand and a gripe against his author. Every girl Skye's ever dated is either dead or trying to take over the world, and in the series finale, Skye's best friend kills him. Or so he thinks. The weapon meant to disintegrate Skye lands him in his author's universe. With a shot at revenge. Skye, meet Jace. Jacen Howard's a brilliant #blerd math whiz and comics aficionado - but at his West Baltimore high school that's a bad thing, and if the bullying isn't bad enough, Jace's cop-father regularly pisses off the neighbors. Jace doesn't see himself as a hero; he's just trying to survive. Jace might be just the hero Skye needs. But Skye won't open up when Jace tries to ease him out of PTSD, and the author's still torturing his friends. As Skye's mood swings and nightmares escalate, Jace realizes that if he doesn't uncover his roommate's real identity soon, Skye will hurt someone-and Skye's still deciding if murder will save his world, or damn his soul.

Book Description
In the comics boom of the 1940s, a legend was born: the Green Turtle. He solved crimes and fought injustice just like the other comics characters. But this mysterious masked crusader was hiding something more than your run-of-the-mill secret identity... The Green Turtle was the first Asian American super hero. The comic had a short run before lapsing into obscurity, but the acclaimed author of American Born Chinese, Gene Luen Yang, has finally revived this character in Shadow Hero, a new graphic novel that creates an origin story for the Green Turtle. With artwork by Sonny Liew, this gorgeous, funny comics adventure for teens is a new spin on the long, rich tradition of American comics lore.

Book Description
The enduring cultural phenomenon of comic book heroes was invented in the late 1930s by a talented and hungry group of artists and writers barely out of their teens, flying by the seat of their pants to create something new, exciting, and above all profitable. The iconography and mythology they created flourishes to this day in comic books, video, movies, fine art, advertising, and practically all other media. Supermen! collects the best and the brightest of this first generation, including Jack Cole, Will Eisner, Bill Everett, Lou Fine, Fletcher Hanks, Jack Kirby, Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, and Basil Wolverton.

"The powerful wizard Shazam has been destroyed and his vast responsibility for presiding over the realm of all magic has been shifted to his mightiest champion, Billy Batson. Such a job can only be performed from the Rock of Eternity -- thus, earth is without a defender to balance the worlds of magic and humanity, for the first time in centuries. Freddy Freeman wants to be that protector, but that is an honor that must be earned. Powerless, Freddy must embark on a quest to prove to the Gods that he is worthy to weld the power of Shazam"--Page 4 of cover
