the adventures of invisible Boy: zeroes to heroes
A middle-grade graphic novel series
Stanley and Gene have finally figured out how to control their invisibility. And it’s obvious to Stanley what they should do next—fight crime, of course! In superhero costumes! Gene, on the other hand, is not so into that (especially not the costumes).
But when Stanley’s family store is robbed, things get personal. Can Stanley and Gene track down the thieves and recover the stolen goods before his family is forced to sell their home? Will their invisibility and Gene’s new inventions be enough to foil the plans of the mysterious supervillain boss pulling the strings?
Get ready for battles full of wacky gadgets, sneak attacks, and an ending you won’t see coming (and not because it’s invisible).
