I recently chatted with 10-year-old Xander, a super-fan of our superhero graphic novel āThe Kinetix and the Glowing Orb of Gorthonā and fellow type 1 diabetic. He shared how he connects most with Bobby Byers a.k.a. CYABETES, who wears an insulin pump like he does. It was a privilege to talk to such a bright, well-spoken & enthusiastic young reader. He had SO many good things to say about the book that we divided his video into THREE parts! Hereās Part 1 of our discussionā¦

A love of pop culture can turn a kid into a collector -- but also a storyteller of their own. @austinbasis is the latest guest on @madepossiblebypopculture , out now on podcast platforms and YouTube.
The 2026 @bt1dgreaterlaca Walk was a success for @breakthrought1d and #TheKinetix this past weekend. We gave away 40 free graphic novels and dozens of activity/coloring books!
