BONUS REVIEW by SHANE WALLACE
One of the best reads of the year! What if destiny had given you a chance
to become a super hero but you just missed it? That's what this story
explores as ultimate slacker, Eric, under achieves and alienates friends
and girl friends. But when he finds his old cape from childhood, Eric
remembers what it was like being the Red Bolt! Great idea from Joe Hill,
written by Jason Ciaramella with a fantastic twist ending. Great art work
that perfectly fits this story from Zach Howard. The best part of the
story is the last page that lets us readers know that The Cape will return
in 2011!
