From Dark Horse, we have Rocket Robinson and the Secret of the Saint (‘RRATSOTS’). And wow, it’s an epic!
This story takes place in 1933, in Paris. A rare and mysterious painting has been stolen from the Louvre Museum, and an innocent man framed for the theft. How dastardly! But Rocket, Nuri and Screech are on the case!
Writer Sean O’Neill has also illustrated and coloured this huge volume, which is commendable enough. What’s even more commendable is that the story is a gripping adventure, full of learnings, surprises, and exotic locales. Fly in a Zeppelin, tour the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. Learn about history of the Knights Templar. And do it all while you follow along on the adventure!
The characters are inviting, and the pace is compelling. O’Neill, with RRATSOTS, has a really strong title on his hands. This volume follows his previous work, Rocket Robinson and the Pharoah’s Fortune.
This title is ideal for story time for kids; it has all the ingredients to keep them entertained, amused and they’ll even pick up some facts along the way! Picture Tintin, or The Hardy Boys, or other similar adventures, specifically aimed at young readers. And let’s talk about value: $14.99 for 250 pages of comic!
