Batpig: When Pigs Fly

Description

LOOK UP AT THE SKY - WHO IS THAT DARING HERO FLOATING BY? IT'S ... BATPIG! Gary Yorkshire was your perfectly average, fuzzy pink pig who loved eating tasty sandwiches, playing video games and hanging out with his friends Carl the fish and Brooklyn the bat. Now, he's an unstoppable super-swine hero who boldly fights for justice - from catching litterers to defeating powerful supervillains intent on destruction. Will Batpig prevail? And will he find a suitable spandex costume to flatter his rear end? PRAISE FOR BATPIG: WHEN PIGS FLY 'This is an absolute must-read for fans of Dav Pilkey's Dog Man series. Readers will go hog wild for this lovable hero.' - Kirkus, starred review 'Irreverent, animal-based humor drives the segments as art emphasizes close-ups and comic asides to accentuate comedic payoffs. With strong linework and anthropomorphic animal designs reminiscent of Saturday morning cartoons, Harrell's story will delight fans of Dog Man and InvestiGators.' - Publishers Weekly
