1-3Kung Pow Chicken series.
In book four, Gordon Blue, brother Benny, and their chicken family travel to New Yolk City for vacation. The siblings' heroic alter egos, Kung Pow and Egg Drop, are called into service as a sidekick convention has attracted legions of both superheroes and supervillains to the city. Dozens of poultry puns, combined with full-color traditional and comic-hybrid illustrations, make this silly series just right for adventure-seeking new readers.
