(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Mike Maihack. Vincent, George, and Max are the sole members of the Captain Stupendous Fan Club. When a new supervillain terrorizes the city, no one is safe--not Vincent's crush, not even Captain Stupendous. Because this book wears its clichés loud and proud, it's surprising to find a plot so full of genuine twists. Jung harnesses nostalgia for the superhero genre and presents it at a slant.
