I somehow completely missed Superworld: Save Noah, so didn't realize right away that this was a sequel. It's done in a fascinating format; sort of like if Brian Selznik (Wonderstruck, The Marvels) used a more Pixar Inside Out style to illustrate a fantasy adventure title like Boniface's 2006 The Extraordinary Adventures of Ordinary Boy. There were a lot of books where the heroes had disappeared and characters had to decide to leave their evil pasts behind a few years ago, but as much as I love Bacon's Joshua Dread, Kraatz's The Cloak Society, or King's The Vindico, they don't circulate. This one might, with the copious illustrations. I might have to hunt down a print copy of the first book to see how hefty it is.

Definitely take a look at this one if your students are still interested in superheroes and supervillains!
