ps238: With Liberty and Recess for All by Aaron Williams
I may have mentioned my love for the comic ps238 a time or two or twenty. Aaron Williams aka
ps238principal has created one of my favorite super-hero titles. He starts with a perfect high concept, a grade school for super-powered children. Then adds in various characters, some of whom are loosely based on more well-known characters. But through it all he writes children like what they are. Kids. ps238 is fun and smart and funny and even exciting on occasion...This first volume collects issues #0-#5 of the series, which introduces the faculty and many of the student body. Including the "evil genius" Zodon, the alien visitor Prospero, Suzi the Nucleur Girl and Tyler the non-powered son of two of Earth's mightiest heroes. It even has Revanent, the Batman archtype created by Michael Stackpole and gifted to Aaron to use in his book and Tyler's off-campus mentor...
