- New Kid on the Block · 22 pages
Just after moving to Blue Valley, Courtney Whitmore finds out that her new stepfather, Pat Dugan, was once Stripesy, the sidekick of the Star-Spangled Kid. When she borrows the Kid's cosmic belt and wears it to her first school dance, she and her stepfather have to make their public debuts as the new Star-Spangled Kid and S.T.R.I.P.E. because it is invaded by a horde of hissing, hooded students.
