E ARC provided by Edelweiss PlusEleven year olds Maya who is very athletic and Jesse who prefers to manage teams and run stats both win tickets to a big basketball game in New York City because they were cleaning up at their school When they are at the game with their dads they sneak off to explore and get a mysterious text message They end up in a storage closet that turns out to be an elevator to the Sports Superheroes Sports room The Superheroes want the kids help in picking out the next generation of sports superheroes Maya and Jesse both pick Steph Curry and are asked to defend their choice They give his origin story explaining how he was born in Akron to an NBA player and college volleyball star and was known in his high school career as the baby faced assassin His super power was his shot and he struggled to get onto a pro team ending up at small Davidson College when Virginia Tech only offered him a walk on position They cover career highlights as well as personal ones such as his wife Ayesha and his three children Because sports superheroes have to be than just the game they talk about the Eat Learn Play Foundation that the Currys run The Superheroes think he is a good choice and he is magically brought to the throne room while the rest of the world is frozen Maya and Jesse are glad to be able to talk to their idol and return to their fathers and the game Later they are once again summoned to recommend someone new this no doubt means there will be other graphic novel biographies in this series Strengths There are very very few sports graphic novels and many of my readers who enjoy this format also enjoy sports This had a Space Jam 1996 feel to it that will resonate with some readers Weaknesses I m not sure if the pictures will be in full color in the finished version but the black and white illustrations were done in a somewhat unusual way that made the characters seem odd What I really think The idea of a group of Sports Superheroes was interesting but made the book seem a little young For middle school I prefer Marannis and Hodge s Beyond the Game series 0593382463
