Gene Luen Yang's graphic novel chronicles the year he spent following a high school basketball team as they strove for a state title. He says he admired the courage it took to step onto the court. 'In the face of ... uncertainty, they stepped out anyway.'
During that season I watched these teenagers — the youngest kid on the team was 14 — step out onto that court in front of crowds of people. Two of the games were televised. The players knew that some of the most vivid memories of their lives would be made on that court. Some of those memories would make them proud and some of those memories would make them cringe. In the face of that uncertainty, they stepped out anyway.
Superheroes are about courage, too. When we read about Superman or Batman, we are reading about characters who face down great odds. I didn't mean for this book to be so personal. When I started it, I was planning to focus solely on the coaches and the players. I wasn't going to be in the book at all.
