Preview: ‘Drew and Jot: Dueling Doodles’
Today we have an exclusive preview of Drew and Jot: Dueling Doodles, by Art Baltazar, the Eisner Award-winning artist for Tiny Titans and many other popular children’s comics. Here’s the executive summary:
In DREW AND JOT: DUELING DOODLES, Andrew and Foz become best friends on the first day of fifth grade through their mutual love of drawing fun characters and crazy action. Their sketches practically come to life in their notebooks where they draw the amazing adventures of the flying superhero Drew, his canine sidekick Jot, and the diabolical villain Doctor Danger. It’s a world of two best friends using their art to go on fun adventures and save the day – that is, until Andrew’s little sister gets her hands on his notebook and scribbles a brand new threat that could ruin everything!
This is the first volume in a planned trilogy, and it will be published by BOOM! Studios in its KaBOOM! imprint on December 18, 2019, in comic shops and January 7, 2020 in bookstores. Enjoy!
