Hello We’re back with another exciting adventure for Holly and her friends Writing this story was SO much fun and this time Cathy and I knew exactly how to tell it There’s EVEN MORE artwork in this story than the first so feast your eyes on the amazingness Since ELECTRIGIRL was published I’ve been reading loads more comics If you’re into Marvel superheroes you MUST check out the fantastic Ms Marvel who is a Muslim girl with superhero powers who still has to deal with her strict parents I’ve also laughed all the way through Phoebe and her Unicorn by Dana Simpson which reminds me of Garfield a comic strip I loved as a kid But my favorite find is Evil Emperor Penguin by Laura Ellen Anderson which is not only laugh-out-loud funny but also has cracking plots and a hopelessly inept villain Happy reading And watch out for the DEADLY SWARM
