Includes both volumes 7
& 8 of this acclaimed series in one
volume.
So where are the real
superheroes? The warriors for truth and justice, the defenders of
the American way, the heroes who fight to make things right and ask
for nothing in return? Hughie finds out when he meets the teenage
adventurers known as SUPERDUPER... but unknown to the little
Scotsman, Butcher has finally learned his secret. A dire scheme is
set in motion, and at the vast superhero evangelist festival of
BELIEVE, Hughie's relationship with Annie January - aka Starlight
of the Seven - reaches its terrible conclusion.
Next... a special story
featuring everyone's favorite pint-sized Scotsman, Hughie. Mind
reeling from cataclysmic events in New York, Wee Hughie heads home
to Auchterladle - the semi-idyllic Scottish seaside town where he
grew up. All Hughie wants is some time to himself, to return to the
bosom of family and friends, and get his head together after two
years of unimaginable chaos. But our hero's luck has always been
more cloud than silver lining, and the familiar surroundings he
craves are not all they might be. Old pals are warped beyond
recognition, strangers in town are up to no good, and a figure from
Hughie's recent past has come back to resolve some unfinished
business. You can go home again - but whether or not you should is
another matter entirely.
