Book
Mister invincible : local hero / written and illustrated by Pascal Jousselin ; colored by Laurence Croix ; translation by David Bryon, James Hogan, and Ivanka T. Hahnenberger.
There's a new superhero in town -- Mr. Invincible. Sure, he wears a mask and cape and helps widows and orphans as any self-respecting hero would, but he also thwarts the mad scientists and bad guys with his amazing super-power that makes him the only true comic book hero: he can reach outside the comic strip panels to affect both space and time.
