just who she is. But when she and her friends stumble across a powerful alien

games.

their friendship or will Jesse hock the artifact for a couple of hot
dogs?

PRAISE FOR STREET
ANGEL:
"Jim Rugg and Brian Maruca’s STREET
ANGEL stars my favorite comic-book hero of the 21st century, and features some
of the coolest artwork I’ve ever seen." —Brian K.
Vaughan
"Jesse Sanchez is my new favorite
comic book character. Great middle school dialogue and the battle scenes will
blow your mind!”
-Jeff Smith (Bone, RASL,
Tuki)
"Jesse, a.k.a. Street Angel is a rare
gem in the male-dominated world of comic book characters. When you finally find
a comic book hero that is female, skateboards, and kicks ass, that's when you
know young girls out there now have a strong super hero to follow. STREET ANGEL
shows girls that they can be anything they want to be, including someone who
saves the world and fights injustices, one bad guy at a time. She also defies
female stereotypes right and left, and that is pretty darn
cool."
-Cindy Whitehead, founder of Girl is NOT a
4 Letter Word
"STREET ANGELl remains as
charming, inventive, and pitch-perfect as it was in the beginning. An
indie-comics classic!"
-Hope Larson (Compass
South, Batgirl)
“I thought I didn't
like comics about kicking ass, but it turns out I REALLY like comics where the
ass-kicker is a 7 year old girl. A+++ more ass-kicking
please.”
-Eleanor Davis (Libby's Dad, How
to Be Happy)
"With great style and flair,
Rugg delivers another stellar story of the ever-sassy Jesse Sanchez a.k.a.
Street Angel. Jam-packed with tween angst, humor, action, and fun, this book is
a must-read for the rebel set."
-Cecil
Castellucci (Shade, the Changing Girl, The PLAIN
Janes)
“STREET ANGEL pulsates with
danger!”
