Mavricks favorite super hero is spider man. When asking mavrick why he loved spider man. He said it’s because he feels like him. He’s just a regular kid and has to go to school just like him but when he’s not at school he is catching the bad guys and always makes jokes. He gets to be both a kid and a super hero.
Mavrick got his love for all super hero’s at an extremely young age. It started with obsessing over watching them. To collecting all the toys and action figures. It has officially turned into comic books. Every time he is at the hospital and has to stay his step dad always takes him to the comic book store to pick out a new one.
I asked mavrick what kind of super power he would like to have if he had to choose one. He said strength and speed. The strength because he would like to be able to fight the bad guys or bully’s from hurting any of his family or friends. And speed because this way he could get to where ever he needs to go quickly and so he can sleep in before school and just wake up and get right to school. He likes his sleep. Then he can run home after school so that he can play outside faster.
