"Astronaut David Powell was one of the team of five astronauts who took on the suicide mission of destroying the Icarus2 asteroid before it could collide with Earth and annihilate all life on the planet. The team succeeded, but as a result of the explosion, David gained the ability of telekinesis, the means of moving matter with one's mind. David also lost his memories. Now, back on Earth, David is travelling throughout the world, taking on different identities and jobs, helping people while his powers grow. Fighting to stay alive and out of the reach of the Foresight Corporation and its CEO, Lorena Payan. Hoping to one day remember his life, his name, and the mysterious woman and young boy in his memory flashes. His wife and son. David's wife, Astrid Allen-Powell, has been receiving secret messages from an informant within Foresight, confirming David is alive and his movements. Astrid is now on a mission: to get her husband back. To put her family back together. Astrid Allen-Powell is much more than most people realise, and she will use every skill and weapon in her arsenal to get back the man she loves."

review


Noble is an enjoyable graphic novel following a potential superhero with powers to save many. 
It's nice to see a broad spectrum of characters within the story and the dialog and art are great to match. 
Having read the blurb though I actually learnt much more there than from the story itself so it is a little more subtle in a lot of the story arc.
Overall I enjoyed the story and would look forward to reading the second volume.

Graphic Novel Review Hotel Transylvania Vol. 1: “Kakieland Katastrophe" by Stefan Petrucha

Hotel Transylvania Vol. 1: “Kakieland Katastrophe"  by Stefan Petrucha Buy it here Publisher: Papercutz  ISBN: 9781629918099  Number of pages: 64 released: 09/01/2018 Everyone's  favourite monster family is back with a new graphic novel featuring all the great characters from the movies.  Theme park boss Stephen Cling is out to undo all the good work Dracs has done and make the public think monsters are scary again by putting some misleading pictures on the internet. Unfortunately Dracs just isn't so good at showing that not everything you read online is true. This first volume of the Hotel Transylvania graphic novels is a great start to a new story line which looks like it may be aimed more at the kids but the adults will love it too. Stefan Petrucha has done a great job of bringing modern day problems such as not believing everything you see on the internet as truth into this story and manages to have it read as if it was right out of th

Book review - Sal by Mick Kitson

Sal by Mick Kitson Hardcover: 240 pages Publisher: Canongate Books; Main edition (1 Mar. 2018) ISBN-10: 1786891875 ISBN-13: 978-1786891877 Buy it here Sal has a troubled life, her mother is an alcoholic who doesn't fill the role of mother, Robert her mothers boyfriend beats both her and her mother and in the night comes into her room for some horrible acts towards Sal. The horrible acts started when Sal was ten years old and now her sister Peppa is coming up for ten.  Sal knows what will happen to her sister if she does not act soon, and unfortunately for Robert she has had time to prepare.  Sal is a wonderful story between the bond of two sisters as Sal and Peppa strive to survive in the woods of Scotland living off the land with help from information Sal saw online and on YouTube.  I loved this story and was always excited to read what would happen next to the sisters and how they would survive. There are turns in the story which I did not

Book Review - The Little Red Wolf by Amelie Flechais

The Little Red Wolf By Amelie Flechais Buy it here Publisher: Lion Forge, LLc, The  ISBN: 9781941302453  Number of pages: 80  The Little Red Wolf is an original fairy tale for children and adults alike (maybe more for the parents) with following the little red wolf as he is sent out to deliver a rabbit for his grandmother who is to old to hunt. Upon his travels the little wolf may face some problems along the way bringing an entertaining experience matched with wonderful artwork to be enjoyed by the reader. This was a wonderful tale with inspiration from little red riding hood. I went in thinking that was what I was going to see in the story and it split off into a whole new story of it's own with a wonderful lesson that things are not always what they seem, along side to listen to your mother, especially when she tells you to avoid the humans who hate wolves. I felt this was maybe more of a darker tale for children so it's probably aimed more at either the pare
