Quincredible Vol. 2: The Hero Within by Rodney Barnes

adventurous emotional hopeful mysterious reflective medium-paced

5.0

I think the writing is sharp, and this volume really delves into New Orleans history (from Transatlantic enslavement to voodoo origins to Hurricane Katrina, etc). I think there’s a way to include African-American/Black American history or themes without it reveling in trauma, and I think Quincredible gets it. The only nitpick is villain introductions are often rushed in this series. But I like dependable, bright-eyed Quinton, and I’m ready for another volume. 

And Ms Adeliade and that white wolf were stylin’!

while it's unbelievably dumb that Brittany is going out with a dude named Big Baby (hope that's a nickname), love that Quinton's mama lets him know she doesn't owe him anything or automatically her affections for being a "nice guy."
