“Family Affair, Part 1”, Powers Squared’s 22nd issue is set for release on Wednesday, September 4. Powers Squared tells the story of Marty and Eli Powers, identical twin brothers who share superpowers granted to them by a magical kitsune. They share some of the same powers, including telepathy, teleportation, invisibility, and super sight. Individually, Marty was granted superspeed and Eli’s telekinetic abilities. The comic book, which was created by Paul, Trevor, and David Hankins, first published in 2017.
In this latest issue, Marty and Eli come face to face with the last people they want to see, their parents, Peter and Peggy. Even though their parents have kept a hands-off approach to raising the boys, relying on relatives and nannies, they still want to have approval over the boys’ lives, even now that they’re in college. And while Marty and Eli have to keep their powers a secret, their parents have secrets of their own.
“The Powers parents are not the ideal,” says David, one of the writers of the book, along with Paul. “This is the first time we really see the boys scared of something, and they’ve been to a war zone. I think that says a lot about their feelings toward Peter and Peggy.”
The artwork is done by Rachel Wells, her seventeenth book, the coloring is by Julia Canon and the lettering is by Trevor. Paul is the editor. The cover and the first few pages of the issue can be found on the Powers Squared website: https://powerssquaredcomicbook.com/%2322-family-affair
As always, “Family Affair, Part 1” will be available in both digital and print formats through the following platforms: GlobalComix, Kindle, Indy Planet, and Artithmeric.com. Links can be found at https://powerssquaredcomicbook.com/the-campus-store.
