(read as single issues)
A bit of an odd mini-series--the issues not written by Nnedi don't seem to fit in? Still, overall a fun read and I can't wait for Nnedi's Shuri comic!

perfectly cromulent fluff, 4 stars for being exactly what I wanted it to be

Loveddd this summer romance! Love the plus-size fashion! Love the unexpected bro-ship! Love the complicated nuance of teen self-esteem! Very hungry for a black bean burger now!

it's so fucking dumb that I like Doctor Strange now but also what other comic is going to give me Lady Thor doing magical brain surgery on like 20 patients simultaneously

okay. okay. God knows I don't read every Marvel book that's out there. Can someone pls tell me how long Actual Leonardo DaVinci has been part of the Marvel universe?! Is he...new here...? Why did he appear so casually in the narrative. Is he immortal or a time traveler.



?!

anyway this book was weird but a lot of fun!

honestly wtf is up with this house

Love the art but didn't find the story quite as compelling as Vol 1. Still, a good series for teens into spooky weird shit.

Really, should be required reading for white people, especially those of us looking for scripts or suggestions for how to explain to other white people that "reverse racism" isn't a thing, for example--the writing is very clear and straightforward. If you've read Ijeomoa Oluo's other writings, or the writings of other black women, some of this might be familiar retreads, but it's a really useful and clear compendium.

(BTW I'm not saying that POC shouldn't read this book or wouldn't find the suggested phrasings here useful--I suspect reading this would be very validating! I'm just saying...white people should definitely read it.)

A really sweet and inspiring read! I haven't read...any other Supergirl comics, I think, so this functions well as intended--a straightforward origin story for new readers. And the art is lovely.

OK I mean this is not the kind of thing I'd usually pick up for myself, but it was the first Graphic Novel to be longlisted for the Man Booker prize, and I like to have Opinions about things, so...

my opinion is: okay I guess??

Just...very bleak and the art is lumpy and weird and looks like airline safety brochures. It must be intentional but I didn't like looking at it. I think this is probably just meant to be unpleasant to mirror how unpleasant LIFE in this MODREN ERA is. FINE, mission accomplished, but...eh.

like it's successful at conveying this flat detached affect but I just don't really like it.

Also it's so defined by the absence of women--the titular murdered Sabrina, the wife and daughter who actively do not want their ex-husband/father to spend more time with them, the grieving sister who doesn't understand the grieving process of her dead sister's boyfriend...eh...I was most connected to the story whenever we did get to hear these women speak, particularly Sabrina and her sister.
