Michael Maxwell McCallum lives in a world just like ours, but peopled by superheroes. When Michael's hero, Perfect Man, quits his job without warning, Michael isn't worried. He knows that Perfect Man will come back. He always does. So that September, when a new teacher shows up in his classroom, a teacher with a number of special powers, Michael figures it out right away. Mr. Clark is Perfect Man. Mr. Clark doesn't say yes and he doesn't say no to Michael's endless questions, but he does encourage Michael to find his own super powers. Not surprisingly, Troy Alan Maxwell Wilson is, and always has been, an avid reader of comic books. Of Perfect Man, he states, "It isin many waysmy own story. I was Michael. My Perfect Man was comic books. I read the comics. I neglected my power. I learned the lesson. These days I still love comics, but I don't neglect my own super power, writing." Perfect Man is Troy's first book. Dean Griffiths credits his love of one particular comic book, Iron Man #115, for beginning his career as an illustrator.
