Book of Interest: Superman of Smallville

Superman fans, the new graphic novel, Superman of Smallville, is out next month. Although it's geared towards middle grade readers, I think anyone can read it. I certainly will, how can I not want to read about the adventures of a teenage Clark Kent a.k.a. Superman (more like Superboy) set in Smallville. This just seems like it will be a fun read.

If this is really good, I hope there will be more stories about a young Clark Kent and maybe even include Lois Lane in a few stories as well.


Book: Superman of Smallville by Franco Aureliani and Art Baltazar

Publication Date: September 3, 2019

Description:

Can Superman keep Smallville from going to the dogs?

Acts of awesomeness are happening around town. People are being rescued, runaway tractors stopped, and fires extinguished. This is all in a day's work for the hero known only as "Superman." But who is he, really?

Thirteen-year-old Clark Kent knows. He has a super-secret—one his parents are constantly worried will get out. Clark promises to be extra careful, but when random objects begin to take flight and disappear, his parents threaten to ground him. Except he's innocent! If Superman isn't responsible...who is? Join Clark in this hilarious adventure as he sniffs out the real culprit.

From New York Times—bestselling and Eisner Award-winning creators Art Baltazar and Franco, comes a fun, whimsical story featuring young Lana Lang, Lex Luthor, and of course Clark Kent.
