All you need is a cloudy night, a rooftop, and a spotlight, right? Meanwhile, things elsewhere are rapidly going from bad to worse, and even the combined might of the League may not be enough against a threat that knows more about them than they do themselves!

ON SALE 4/6/27
Welcome to K-Town, Central City! Neighbors take care of each other here because they can’t count on the police or hometown hero, the Flash, to notice them. But living beneath notice is fine by Bobby Park, whose painful acne and depression make him spend most days wishing he were a ghost.
That is, until his self-made cure (formulated in his elite high school’s S.T.A.R. Labs-sponsored facilities) turns him into something more like a monster and catapults him into a world of monsters named for zodiac signs trying to be heroes and secretive forces (including the Justice League?) tracking and hunting them down. Can Bobby keep his grades up, untangle his first love triangle, and survive long enough to feel like he deserves to be the hero of his own story?
Writer Jeremy Holt (What If?…Venom, Made in Korea) and manga artist Chong Hou (WEBTOON Lost and Found Line) present The Manifestations of Bobby Park, a black-and-white manga-style graphic novel starring a teen whose search for confidence unleashes something far more powerful than he ever imagined.
