Review: Super Side Kicks: Ocean's Revenge

Dive into the next action-packed adventure of cartoonist Gavin Aung Than’s Super Sidekicks series. Where the real heroes are the superheroes sidekicks. 

Catch up with Junior Justice (JJ to his friends), Flygirl, Dinomite and Goo as they face the next diabolic threat to humanity.

What starts off as an ordinary day of doing the usual sidekicks’ tasks; buying hair gel, collect the dry-cleaning and cleaning the toilet turns into something they have never encountered before.

Tiamata, Mother of the Seas has had enough of the human race using the ocean as a junkyard. Now it’s time for payback and a taste of their own medicine.

Review: Baa Baa Black Belt

Baa Baa Black Belt is a funny picture book.

A sheep, known only as Baa Baa Black Belt, claims to be the farm's 'mighty warrior', someone who can perform leaps and flips and spinning back kicks. Or so he thinks. Oh, and Black Belt has a student, a pig named Pork Chop.

While the text tells one story, that of a sheep famous for martial arts, the pictures tell another, with the sheep not quite as clever as he thinks. Or perhaps it's a case of telling tall tales.

A special kick aimed at the scarecrow goes awry and Black Belt is seeing stars, but as he tells it his moves are pretty sweet.

Review: Super Side Kicks: No Adults Allowed

Behind every great superhero is an indispensable sidekick. Their sole job is to clean up and make their boss look good without getting any credit.

When JJ (Junior Justice) refuses to put up with it anymore he decides to create his own team of superhero sidekicks. 

Heading up the team is JJ along with Dinomite and Flygirl, but there is another sidekick, Goo who wants to join.

Catch is, Goo is the sidekick of the evil Dr Enok – can the team trust him?
