About this book

Mason Brady is a comic-book superfan who knows every hero and villain by heart—and he’s busy drawing his own. A visit to the Comic Book Characters Hall of Fame Museum brings him face-to-face with the legendary Night Howler exhibit. When costumed crooks begin striking around town, Mason is pulled into a real-life adventure that feels ripped from the panels. Fast, funny, and a little spooky, this Goosebumps tale hooks kids who love superheroes and scares without getting too intense.

Setting: contemporary small town and a comic book museum
