Metropolis Grove #[nn]

Three kids — a dark-haired girl, a red-headed boy, and a girl in a yellow dress — gape upward in wide-eyed amazement at a pair of red-booted legs descending from above their quiet suburban neighborhood, and the sheer delight on their faces says everything about the adventure awaiting them. Drew Brockington handles every creative role here, from writing and art to lettering and color (with Wendy Broome on colors), giving Metropolis Grove a cohesive, warm charm that feels perfectly suited to its mix of everyday suburbia and something extraordinary dropping in. Published by DC in 2021, this is an inviting all-ages read that finds the wonder of superheroics right in the middle of an ordinary cul-de-sac.
