Paul Pope’s new graphic novel is called Battling Boy and is about a young hero who must rescue the entire city of Acropolis from monsters.
"After
13 years, author Paul Pope has written his first major graphic novel, called
Battling Boy. Clocking in at 208 pages in full color, Battling Boy is Pope's
first work aimed, like Jeff Smith's Bone, at an audience of all ages. EW calls
Pope's Battling Boy, 'A new generation superhero.' Battling Boy is set on the
planet Arcopolis, a world where monsters roam the streets at night (and
sometimes during the day as well). Only one man stands against the ever-growing
monster tide -- the genius vigilante Haggard West. Haggard West dies in the
first chapter. All hope seems lost: Arcopolis is desperate. But when its
salvation comes in the form of a twelve-year-old demigod, no one is more
surprised than Battle Boy himself."
The
book comes out this October.
Here
are some pages from the book.
