The Bad Guys and the Bad Girls take the time to discuss how they are in need of a name change. So they come up with The Shadow Squad G. Once they have a name they go with it because it is different and it helps to include both the Bad Guys and the Bad Girls in a whole new group. It’s nice to see that no one is being left out. I actually like the new name.
I look forward to seeing what is going to take place in the next book as I have enjoyed this series from the beginning. It is fun to read, interesting and well all around just good in so many ways. I like that it is funny and engaging for children.
I recommend this series for any child that enjoys graphic novels and a good laugh!… (more)
