129. Pizza and Taco: Super Awesome Comic


Pizza and Taco: Super Awesome Comic! Stephen Shashkan. 2021. [August] 72 pages. [Source: Library]

First sentence:
Pizza: Hey, Taco! Taco! Taco! Taco! Taco! Hey, Taco!!! TACO!!!
Taco: Oh, hey, Pizza.
Pizza: Whatcha doing?
Taco: I made a comic!

Premise/plot: In their THIRD adventure, these two best friends decide to work TOGETHER to write a comic book (or possibly a graphic novel). They start by brainstorming. What should their comic be about??? So many choices! So tough to decide! What about superhero wizards who do martial arts in outerspace???

But will working together to create a comic book damage their friendship? What if these two were to have....ARTISTIC differences???? CAN this comic be saved? Can this friendship be repaired?

My thoughts: I really LOVED this one. I thought it would be hard--if not impossible--for this one to be better than the second adventure, Best Party Ever. It may be too close to call. It was relatable. It was silly. It was able to throw in some real world advice for how to work together: Listen, Be Positive, and Compromise. Overall, I loved it.

Definitely recommend this series. It kept growing on me. I want more, more, more!
