Money prince
DC’s Monkey Prince had me at “written by Gene Luen Yang” and won me over with tremendous charm, confidence, and surprisingly deep integration into Gotham City. The series spins out of DC Festival of Heroes: The Asian Superhero Celebration and features a deliberate focus on Asian creative talent and characters in the story. It’s a story that feels both familiar to fans of Billy Batson and Captain Marvel, or Peter Parker and Spider-Man, and uniquely rooted in the mythos of “Journey to the West,” and a superhero rooted in a traumatic experience with Batman.
