1-3Captain Awesome series.
Illustrated by
George O'Connor.
A field trip to the zoo has longtime pals Eugene and Charlie and new friend Sally excited, especially about seeing elephants. When a large dog, a suspicious zoo guide, arch-enemy Meredith, and a seemingly empty elephant habitat threaten their goal, their alter-ego superheroes save the day. Newly independent readers probably won't mind the simplistic plot. Black-and-white cartoons include crude drawings attributed to Eugene.
