Module 5 读写综合能力提升 Let me tell you stories about Gene Luen Yang and Bernard Chang. Although they moved to the United States with their family at an early age，they grew up on the cartoons of the Monkey King. They enjoy watching the cartoon so much. In the past 20 years，Yang has written for comics (漫 画)—New Superman. He has written some very popular novels such as American Born Chinese. And Chang had been one of the most famous illustrators (插画家) because of his work on Green Lantern and Batman Beyond. The two great cartoonists had the same childhood memory (记忆) of the Monkey King. They teamed up to come up with Monkey Prince，a Chinese superhero character for DC Comics. “The Monkey King had a huge effect (影响) on me and I think that is true for all Chinese kids，” says Chang. He grew up with his parents who had moved from Taiwan to California. “He is funny，and then he is very powerful with all these superpowers. He is like an American superhero but in ancient Chinese history. So it should be called as a dream work.” Monkey Prince appeared in the collection of DC Festival of Heroes: the Asian Superhero Celebration (2021). The new teenage character was thrown into the DC Universe，together with characters such as Shazam in Philadelphia. Monkey Prince goes on well with his adoptive parents (养父母). Although he doesn't remember his father，he was born with some of the Monkey King's powers.
