In this graphic novel adventure from the illustrator of the Ordinary People Change the World series, a pair of different-as-can-be twin brothers accidentally bring their favorite video game to life - and now they have to find a way to work together to defeat it. Jeremy and Justin are twins, but they couldn't be any more different from one another. Jeremy is a risk-taker who likes to get his hands dirty, and Justin prefers to read, focus, and get all his facts right before jumping in. But they do have one important thing in common: they both love video games. When Jeremy wins a cereal-box charm that brings his favorite video game to life, villains and all, he finds that he's in waaaay over his head. Justin knows everything there is to know about the rules of the game - he read the handbook, of course - and Jeremy isn't afraid to try new things.
