So what kind of feedback are we getting about Wireman? Here's what one teacher said:

“I could tell you several amusing stories about how I got my students to do extra work to earn the cover poster and how they made me promise to let them know when issues 3 and 4 were out, even though they would be in middle school. The entire fifth grade graduating class read and enjoyed Wireman, but for a handful of students, it became more than a comic.

“Frankie, a fifth grade, special education student, was a VERY reluctant reader. He tested at pre-primer level in reading in September. Throughout the year, it was a struggle to get him to read anything—even a word or a sentence. He wanted nothing to do with school. Then, a Wireman Comic cover showed up on the bulletin board behind my desk. Frankie noticed it right away and wanted to know what it was. I told him it was for reading and he probably wouldn't want to see it. No, he assured me that in fact he did want to read it. Frankie picked up the first comic and read it. He was intrigued by the depth of the story line and was excited that he could actually read it. By the end of the second comic, he was hooked. On the last day of fifth grade, he refused to take any of his notebooks or folders home. However, I saw him tuck those Wireman Comics into his backpack before he left."
