I received this graphic novel from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

All in all, I still had fun reading it though I was quite confused. I miss that our girls are barely interacting outside of their friend group, that is what I loved in the Shea Fontana series, everyone was together and no matter if they were going to be baddies or not they were friends. I won't be continuing this series.

Review to come in October.

Felt like we dropped into the middle of the story and didn't quite find the beginning. Read this with my daughter and she LOVES Superhero girls, but because of that she had a hard time connecting with this reboot.
The story itself wasn't bad, although the end had a very 'Breakfast Club' feel. The moral of the story was a good one, but I wonder if there wasn't a bit much distraction from the main storyline to really get the impact.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this comic.

Super fun book !
I like this iteration of the DC Super Hero Girls as much as I like the original one and I'm never disappointed even though the stories are quite simple and meant for kids. I like the cartoon a lot and this felt like watching an episode so it was really great. The overall story arch was fun, I liked how it mixed their high school life and super heroing, and Lena Luthor is amazingly bonkers. As a Supergirl fan, this was a nice read as it didn't shy away from her complicated feelings while still staying mostly light hearted.
