Review
This is book is very entertaining. I could see it easily being bedtime story for kids. The book is filled with humor and action, along with cleverly disguised callbacks to other stories that many adults will recognize.
It's made for kids but anyone can enjoy this story, I know I did. I plan to read it to my son soon, even though he's just a bit under the target audience. I'm told that this book is made for fans of Tiny Titans, Flash Gordon Adventures and Dog Man and I'd have to agree. It feels right like you'd read this along with those.
The book comes out mid-February so be on the lookout for this book at comics shops and you can pre-order at Papercutz.com
The writing is perfect for early readers and the art is clear and easy to follow.
Here are the 1st 5 preview pages of the book.
Here is the description from the solicits:

What happens when you hire a Ninja to steal a secret formula? What happens when that formula is held in a top secret state of the art high security science lab? What happens when that ninja accidentally gets splashed with the secret formula? Well... all of those questions are probably related and answer the question: Where did that giant Kaiju monster suddenly come from?Â
The life of a Ninja isn't easy, with all the stealth sneaking, high kicks, and the other Ninjaery things that need to be done. Now throw in a secret formula that turns you into a big city destroying monster and suddenly you're not so stealthy any more. The job gets even more difficult when you have not one, but two super smart mad scientists after you because they think you stole their formula and send hordes of robots, the air force, and other never before seen science experiments after you. It may no longer be just a job for a Ninja, but it definitely is for a NINJA KAIJU!
