In Scissor City, a quirky team of hairdresser superheroes—Casco, Patty, Letty, Nubes, and Flealix the Dog—fight to protect citizens from the mischievous Bad Buzz Boyz. As Buzz and Boffo Buzzington plot to reclaim their family's hair-cutting empire, the Snips must outwit these foes while delivering fabulous hairdos. Can they keep the city safe and stylish? Dive into this action-packed, comedic adventure where every snip counts and every style saves the day. Perfect for young readers who love humor and heroics.

From the publisher

For readers of Dog Man and The Bad Guyscomes a fun and zany early graphic novel series starring a crew of scissor-wielding hairdresser superheroes saving the city from evildoers bent on creating havoc and bad haircuts. The Snips is a superhero series filled with action, adventure, comedy, and hijinks for readers who love Dav Pilkey and animated television shows like Scooby-Doo and Guess Who. The Snips aren’t your average heroes - Casco, Patty, Letty, Nubes, and Flealix the Dog make up Scissor City’s beloved crew of crime-fighting, mystery-solving barbers! But not everyone in Scissor City is a fan of their dazzling dos and wacky hair inventions. Buzz and Boffo Buzzington, the descendants of the creator of the buzz cut, have been desperately trying to find a way to overthrow the Snips, restore Buzz Corp–their family’s company–to the top of the hair-cutting world, and finally earn the respect of their father Biff Buzzington Sr. Can the Snips keep the citizens of Scissor City safe from the hijinks of the Bad Buzz Boyz and still give amazing hairdos? This easy-to-read graphic novel series will be perfect for kids 7-10, those who are reluctant readers or newly independent readers, as well as kids who just like jokes, puns, and outrageous humor.
