(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Greg Paprocki. In this tongue-in-cheek, trivia-packed how-to for the budding superhero, King covers everything from a ranking of the top superpowers to origin stories to silly superpranks. Silly, chatty prose and comics-style line drawings underscore the humor and help break up the rather exhaustive information aimed at superhero-obsessed readers. Timeline. Bib.
Reviewer: David Elzey
