Magical Boy: A Graphic Novel

Magical Boy is a two-issue graphic novel series from Scholastic, launched in 2022, that reimagines the magical girl genre through a transmasculine lens. The story follows a young boy who discovers he is the latest in a long line of magical guardians, but must navigate his identity and powers on his own terms. Associated with creator The Kao, this series matters for bringing inclusive, heartfelt representation to middle-grade comics, blending action and coming-of-age themes with Scholastic’s signature accessible storytelling.
