Goodyng: The Polymath: The Polymath (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798990950641)

His power is his mind. Goodyng: The Polymath tells the origin of Cato Goodyng--child prodigy, self-made inventor, one of Florespark's greatest minds--from comics legend Mike Baron.

Cato Goodyng is an autodidact and polymath, a fiercely independent inventor who refuses to back down. From outsmarting his first schoolyard bully to facing far more dangerous enemies as an adult, Goodyng builds his way from prodigy to self-made man--and his company's tech ends up protecting ordinary citizens when the Devlings come.

A sci-fi action origin story with heart and wit: the making of a genius who chose to use his mind to defend people who can't defend themselves.

A self-contained Goodyng graphic novel written by Mike Baron, with art by Will Conrad and colors by J. Brown--the origin of a character whose story connects across the wider Rippaverse, including the Horseman and Exclave lines.

Mike Baron is one of American comics' most prolific writers, with a career spanning more than five decades and over a thousand published comic books. He is the co-creator of Nexus (with artist Steve Rude)--the Eisner Award-winning science-fiction series that earned both creators Best Writer/Artist Team and Best Single Issue honors--and the creator of The Badger. Baron launched the first ongoing Punisher series at Marvel Comics in 1986, writing more than sixty issues in what is widely considered one of the seminal runs on the character, and he wrote the second volume of The Flash at DC Comics. His broader credits include Batman, multiple Star Wars adaptations for Dark Horse Comics, and an Inkpot Award (1988) for lifetime contribution to comics. As a novelist, Baron is the author of the Bad Road Rising series--six Josh Pratt thrillers and the standalone Disco--published by Liberty Island Press. At Rippaverse Publishing, Baron writes Goodyng and Crotalus.
