Summary

Returning guest Judd Winick introduces Hilo Presents, a new imprint expanding beyond the beloved Hilo series to bring his signature action-packed storytelling and humor to brand new stories and worlds. The Mighty launches as the first book under this banner, and Judd breaks down the story of Miranda Luna, an average kid in Willow City navigating multiple changes—rising crime, increased bullying, a mysteriously acting family, and her own body's unexpected transformations including super-strength and sudden hair growth—while grappling with a local legend about a giant, furry, mythical creature that protects the city in times of need. He discusses his approach to balancing themes of growing up and feeling out of control with fun middle-grade adventure, explains how The Mighty compares to Hilo in tone and audience, and shares his vision for the Hilo Presents imprint including plans for additional books, whether he's still working on Hilo simultaneously, and where readers can find The Mighty.

As always, you can find Judd on Instagram @juddwinick.
