Publisher Description:
Jackson "Jax" Kingsford is a skilled hockey player with a wicked slapshot. When his team makes it to the state hockey tournament, he can't believe that he has to play against his former best friend, Archer Voss. The two were once inseparable and loved playing hockey together, both in Jax's backyard and on the school's hockey team. But then Archer's family had to move, splitting up the team and causing a fall out in their friendship. What will happen when the former friends face off against each other in the big game? Combining a high-stakes sports story with a dynamic full-color comic format, this Jake Maddox Graphic Novel is sure to be a win for young athletes and struggling readers alike.

Contributor Bio(s): Fuentes, Benny: - Benny Fuentes lives in Villahermosa, Tabasco in Mexico, where the temperature is just as hot as the sauce. He studied graphic design in college, but now he works as a full-time colorist in the comic book and graphic novel industry for companies like Marvel, DC Comics, and Top Cow Productions. He shares his home with two crazy cats, Chelo and Kitty, who act like they own the place.Maddox, Jake: - "Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler - or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps - literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers."Garcia, Eduardo: - Working out of Mexico City, passionate comic book fan and artist Eduardo Garcia has lent his talented illustration abilities to such varied projects as the Spider-Man Family, Flash Gordon, and Speed Racer. He's currently working on a series of illustrations for an educational publisher while his wife and children look over his shoulder!
