About the Book
The #1 global bestselling Captain Underpants series returns! Based on the first sensational chapter book, it's a reimagined adventure perfectly paired with all-new manga artwork. Captain Underpants: The First Epic Manga is written and adapted by Dav Pilkey, illustrated by manga artist Motojiro, and totally reinvented for a new generation of readers. Tra-la-laaa!
Following the story arc of the first original chapter book, Captain Underpants: The First Epic Manga is reenvisioned as an engaging graphic novel reading in Western style (left to right). With dynamic manga artwork by Japanese artist Motojiro, all-new Flip-O-Ramas, and much more, it will captivate existing fans, capture new readers, and appeal to comics, manga, and anime aficionados alike!
Combining humor and action with empowerment and empathy, Captain Underpants: The First Epic Manga features the amazing adventures of best friends George Beard and Harold Hutchins and their waistband warrior superhero creation, Captain Underpants! He's faster than a speeding waistband, more powerful than boxer shorts, and able to leap tall buildings without getting a wedgie. Night and day, Captain Underpants fights for truth, justice, and all that is pre-shrunk and cottony!
The Captain Underpants series, which was launched over 25 years ago, was instrumental in creating the illustrated children's chapter book category that's still popular today.
For additional awesome, action-packed, inspiring escapades filled with creativity and imagination, read Dav Pilkey's Dog Man, Cat Kid Comic Club, Super Diaper Baby (now in full color), and Dragon series. And be sure to check out the two critically acclaimed major motion pictures, Dog Man and Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie!
