Teen Agent by Chris Everheart
When a new kid named Eric Stone comes to Seaside High, he recruits Ryker and Jay to help create an invention for the National Science Competition. The three teens make a great team, but soon, strange accidents befall Hazmat and Emmi, and they grow suspicious of the new kid. Ryker and Jay insist that Eric is legit and accompany him to his secret lab to finish their project. Suddenly, their high-tech invention turns on them, and Eric is behind the controls! Is Eric out to put an end to Recon Academy?
This up-to-date action mystery resembles a Saturday-morning cartoonFour slender teens, each with a specialty (martial arts, computers, etc.), sleuth their way through a plot that cuts corners on its way to a predictable conclusion. Lots of kids love TV cartoons, and this one comes with discussion questions, writing prompts, and a few vocabulary words (e.g., terrain, sabotage). The richly colored digital art starts off fine – characters have big manga-esque eyes but are not overly stylized, action is convincingly rendered, and panels are drawn using a variety of points of view. However, the drawing is of uneven quality, and by the end of the book, it is poorly rendered, with many panels appearing pixilated and rough. Bright, appealing colors and the promise of action give this book a lot of shelf appeal, but readers looking for suspense will quickly lose interest. * School Library Journal *
As a lifelong comics fan, Sean O'Reilly dreamed of becoming a comic book creator. In 2004, he realized that dream by creating Arcana Studio. In once short year, O'Reilly took his studio from a one-person operation in his basement to an award-winning comic book publisher with more than 150 graphic novels produced for Harper Collins, Simon & Schuster, Random House, Scholastic, and others. Within a year, the company won many awards including the Shuster Award for Outstanding Publisher and the Moonbeam Award for top children's graphic novel. O'Reilly also won the Top 40 Under 40 award from the city of Vancouver and authored "The Clockwork Girl" for Top Graphic Novel at Book Expo America in 2009. Currently, O'Reilly is one of the most prolific independent comic book writers in Canada. While showing no signs of slowing down in comics, he now writes screenplays and adapts his creations for the big screen.
