One of the world's greatest fairy tales is re-told in a
graphic-novel format. In a far-away kingdom, there lives an Emperor
who prizes fancy clothes above all else. He buys suit after suit
made of the most expensive materials instead of tending to his
threadbare kingdom. Then, one day, two travelling merchants offer
to make the Emperor a special suit that has magical powers. The
merchants, however, are not who they claim to be, and the suit has
one major flaw, no one can see it!
Eers wil ek iets net baie duidelik maak: Hierdie is 'n Joernaal en nie 'n dagboek nie. Ek weet wat dit op die omslag se, maar toe Ma hierdie ding gaan koop het, het ek spesifiek gevra om een te kry waarop daar nie "dagboek" staan nie. Die enigste rede hoekom ek enigsins ja gese het vir die ding, is sodat ek dit eendag kan gebruik as ek ryk en beroemd is. Maar nou is ek eers vasgekeer tussen 'n klomp morone.
Vandag is die eerste dag van skool. Toe dink ek ek kan maar netsowel in hierdie boek skryf om die tyd vinniger te laat verbygaan.
With great porker comes great responsibility. Gary Yorkshire is
finally getting into the swing of this whole superhero thing -
saving the world from terrible villains, masterfully concealing his
identity with a very small mask. But what happens when Batpig is
called to battle time itself in a maths class that just won't end?
Or when the city is attacked by something completely (and
literally) out of this world? It's not easy being a super-swine,
but with the help of his best friends Brook the bat and Carl the
fish, there's no hamburglar they can't catch. A brilliantly funny
and skilfully rendered commercial young graphic novel series, with
each book containing two separate stories.
