PetWizards by Kirk Scroggs, who recently wrote and drew The Secret Spiral of Swamp Kid and We Found A Monster for DC Comics, is a new middle-grade graphic novel series of his own." It follows Finch Eaglehawk, a glam rock–loving middle schooler with the power to control pets, though he can only control the "etcetera" of the animal kingdom (snakes, snapping turtles, and hissing cockroaches of the world). He will use his abilities to help those in need, protect the vulnerable, and most importantly, impress his school crush, Ken Chu, the dreamy star of the school musical."
World English rights to the first two books in the PetWizards series have been bought by Chris Duffy, an editor at Union Square Kids. PetWizard Volume One will be published in the spring of 2024. Kirk Scroggs' agent Jordan Hamessley sold world English rights while at New Leaf Literary & Media; she now represents Scroggs at JABberwocky Literary Agency.
