by Ben Hatke (Author)
A wildly imaginative, action-packed graphic novel adventure from acclaimed creator Ben Hatke, Mighty Jack is a thrilling modern fantasy about courage, responsibility, and the kind of magic that changes everything.
Jack just wants a normal summer. But when he trades his mom's car at a flea market for a mysterious box of seeds, he accidentally unlocks something far beyond anything he could have imagined. Those seeds don't grow ordinary plants--they grow a gateway to a strange, dangerous, and breathtakingly beautiful world.
Soon Jack and his friends are pulled into an epic adventure filled with:
- mysterious creatures and hidden dangers
- strange magical ecosystems
- unexpected alliances
- high-stakes survival challenges
- and discoveries that blur the line between science and fantasy
As Jack learns to navigate this new world, he must also step up in ways he never expected--protecting the people he cares about while confronting forces bigger than he is ready for.
