 Your favourite comic character
and why?
Aiza: Harold from Captain Underpants is my favorite comic
book character because, even as a child, I thought he was a
good guy despite him being clumsy and his ability to defeat all
the bad guys.

Ayza: My favourite character is Superman as I like his backstory

of how he was born on the planet Krypton and as a baby and
how his parents sent him to Earth in a small spaceship shortly
before Krypton was destroyed.

Hajrah: I really like superman because he is a hero who saves

the world plus I find it very funny that he wears an underwear
on his clothes and always made me wonder why did he do so.
