Illustrated by
Troy Cummings.
Rusty truck Clarence is also the heroic Mighty Truck, unbeknownst to his best friend, cement mixer Bruno. When a crisis occurs at Muddymania, Clarence saves the day (with Bruno's help), revealing his secret identity to his accepting friend. Though pacing and transitions are a bit choppy, young truck and superhero fans should still be entertained. Occasional speech bubbles and the digital illustrations add cartoon flair.
