Draw the line

Laurent Linn

Adrian Piper is used to blending into the background at his Texas high school. He may be a talented artist, a sci-fi geek, and gay, but none of those social groups get him at all. In fact, the only place he feels free to be himself is at his drawing table while he s creating his own world through the Renaissance-art-inspired superhero of his own design, Graphite. But in real life, when a hate crime spurs Adrian into action, he must decide what kind of person he wants to be. Maybe it s time to not be so invisible after all no matter how dangerous the risk.
