Jethro Morales is a professional artist having worked for Image and Dynamite, most notably for Hack/SLASH, Green Hornet, and Dejah Thoris.
Del Arroz and Morales have teamed up to produce a superhero comic with intense personal drama like the Batman/Catwoman relationship has promised but never delivered. FLYING SPARKS: a hero and villain in love. You can help make this book a reality, with this volume including the first three chapters of this planned ongoing series, 66-pages of storytelling by a professional science fiction writer. The best part is: the art is already complete, which means this book can get into your hands much more quickly than most crowdfunded comics! Digital books can be delivered as soon as this crowdfund ends! Great story! Great Art. No Wait!
But it gets even better: this book features a stunning cover by the acclaimed creative team that brought you JAWBREAKERS: LOST SOULS, John Malin (Cable, Thunderbolts) and Brett R. Smith!

Sparks Will Fly
What if you met the person of your dreams, but they're not only your direct opposite, but also your enemy?
Chloe Anderson is a physics student by day, a hard working, smart girl who's close with her mad scientist professor, working with him as a teacher's assistant. She has access to several of his inventions, and in order to help test them, she moonlights as the superhero, Meta-Girl.
Johnny Benvinutti comes from a well-established Italian crime family, and recently found he has the ability to shoot lightning from his hands. His descent into deeper crime only creates the need to cover more up as he runs his operation out of a coffee shop front business.
When the two of them meet, sparks fly on multiple levels. But will they be able to maintain their relationship while keeping secret lives from each other?
FLYING SPARKS will feature the first three chapters collected in one volume. 66-pages of action packed story of a quality only one of the top science fiction authors in the field today can bring you.
This campaign will help Del Arroz pay for art, lettering, editing, a print run of 1,000 books for the graphic novel, and the beautiful cover by superstar artists Jon Malin and Brett R. Smith.
