**Editor’s Note: Jon Del Arroz has contributed to Bounding Into Comics in the past by writing a couple of comic book reviews**

Science fiction novelist and comic book writer Jon Del Arroz has launched a brand new IndieGoGo campaign for his comic book, Flying Sparks.

Del Arroz has already faced some controversy for launching the IndieGoGo.  Gregory Cisson tried to create a fake KickStarter to try and dupe fans. For clarification, Flying Sparks is on IndieGoGo.

Arroz describes Flying Sparks as “an epic superhero story with intense relationship drama.” He teamed up with artist Jethro Morales for Flying Sparks. The book will also feature cover art by Jawbreakers – Lost Souls artist Jon Malin and colorist Brett R. Smith.

And here’s a look without the colors.

Flying Sparks

Flying Sparks is a 66 page trade paperback that follows the story of Chloe Anderson. Anderson is a physics student by day who works closely with her mad scientist professor as a teaching assistant. But during the night she uses a multitude of inventions to become the superhero known as Meta-Girl.

Flying Sparks

But Chloe isn’t the only star of the book, it also follows Johnny Benvinutti. Benvinutti comes from a well-established Italian crime family which he runs out of a coffee shop front business. But there’s more to him than meets the eye, he also has the ability to shoot lightning from his hands.

Flying Sparks

When the two of them meet, sparks will fly. But will they be able to maintain their relationships while keeping their secret lives from each other?

The book is expected to ship to backers in November 2018.
