A New Superhero Comic With A New Point Of View: Raising Dion (Trailer)
Super dope! A comic taking another angle on the superhero saga. Sure, we have seen coming of age stories for superheroes (usually comic/TV/movie creators backtracking their characters’ stories for new content)… but what about Black superheroes (much fewer)… Black kid superheroes (what, like Cyborg off Teen Titans)… How about a widowed Black mom raising her kid, who happens to be gifted with super powers???
Imagine Superman, but from Martha Kent’s point of view. Or imagine Spiderman, but from Aunt May’s point of view. This is a superhero story, but from the parent’s point of view. But unlike her son, she doesn’t have any powers.
Sounds incredible, right? Can’t wait for the first issue, right? Well… GO! Get a FREE downloadable copy (or even better, you can BUY a physical copy to support the production) at www.raisingdion.com.
