Omschrijving
Young Shadow teams up with the Watchdogs in a door-die baseball game against a roster of ghosts and
ghoulies! Will Bolt City survive?
Young Shadow usually protects sci-fi Bolt City by making deliveries
for the food bank and rescuing pets. But this time around, he needs
to focus on two things: hitting and pitching! When Young Shadow
and the eight Watchdogs — Elmore, Gerry, Larry, Gomez, Marta,
Ketchum, Rolando, and Junior — investigate a concerning chemical sludge being dumped into Bolt City’s water, Elmore discovers
a haunted baseball glove and inadvertently summons a team from
the beyond that challenges them to a game to the death. With a stadium full of hostile vampires, mummies, frankensteins, and ghouls
rooting for the visitors, the Watchdogs enlist Young Shadow to fill
out their roster — and save Bolt City!
This exciting new middle-grade graphic novel from cartoonist
and musician Ben Sears establishes a world that embraces classic
superhero, sci fi, and supernatural comics without any irony, executed in a brilliant two-tone color scheme of jet black and mustardy
yellow that perfectly suits the spooky fun and fast paced adventure.
Young Shadow & the Watchdogs is a page-turner for readers of any age.
