Reviews
Praise for Cosmic Commandos Author/illustrator and comics artist Eliopoulos bases his graphic novel on his own identical twin sons, and the reality of their relationship shines through the sci-fi-light tale with its silly villain (named Skorn) and copious action and plentiful jokes. . . . Readers will look for Eliopoulos' next venture into kids' comics with anticipation. --Kirkus A graphic novel that balances near-nonstop action with a testy sibling relationship. . . . Eliopoulos's chunky linework and the squat proportions of his young heroes evoke Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes strip . . . and diehard comics fans will appreciate the references he sneaks in to Peanuts, Garfield, and Jarrett J. Krosoczka's Lunch Lady series. --Publishers Weekly An emotionally complex and satisfying story. . . . Eliopoulos's Charles Schultz-inspired cartooning, with balloon-headed characters and popping colors, keeps the action light and zippy even when the emotions run high. --Booklist
