Let’s be real, actually managing to raise a kid is the real superpower.
Raising Dion is a new comic book from Dennis Liu, that takes a look at the unsung heroes in classic superhero stories – the people raising them.
The story follows seven-year-old Dion as he learns how to use his powers – invisibility, telekinesis, and plasma powers. So far, so classic comic stuff.
But this time, Dennis Liu tells the narrative from the perspective of the woman raising the superhero: Dion’s single mum, Nicole.
Nicole doesn’t have any supernatural powers, other than that classic mum ability to always magically know what her son is up to.
