Would like to give Devil Dinosaur a good squeezy hug.

I loved the main character so driven and brave and creative. I also love the unexpected connection with the dinosaur.

Well I loved the protagonist, I enjoyed the quotes throughout from scientists, and I thought the cliffhanger at the end was intriguing, but the rest of the book was kind of a letdown. It's one of those comics where I feel like I needed some prior knowledge because I just had no idea what was happening. Parts of the action were too hastily drawn and I was left going back through the scenes again and again wondering what in the world just happened.

I wish I'd had a comic book depicting an independent, fourth-grade science girl genius as its protagonist when I was growing up. I'm glad that a generation of girls will have the chance to grow up reading a comic about a girl like them. It's about time.

I’d always meant to read this series but now that I’m loving the tv show I’m finally doing it. I love the vibes of this series. And the writers did a good job of bringing me up to speed with what’s going on with the terrigan cloud and inhumans. I’m not a regular Marvel comics reader so that was helpful. I love the theme of being yourself and understood as yourself. I am also terribly worried because the last issue ended on a huge cliffhanger so I’m going to hope I can get the next volume quickly!

Moon Girl is kick ass and Devil Dinosaur is just a giant red version of Scooby-Doo and I love it.

A great comic for encouraging scientific endeavors and building confidence, especially for girls. Including quotes by famous scientists was a great addition. I love the theme of being true to yourself. This comic stays checked out at my school library. Glad I finally had the chance to read it!

This graphic novel is definitely one of the best that I have read. Lunella is an amazing smart girl who has an Inhuman gene and she does not want to change. It is her body and it will do as she says, not what anyone else says. So, in trying to find a cure for the Inhuman gene and the Terrigan Cloud, she rarely pays attention in school, she works with all sorts of gadgets (a bit like Tony Stark, only younger and more approachable in book format), and she somehow ends up with a giant dinosaur. It is so GOOD! If you love Tony Stark, the Marvel Universe, and seeing POC kick ass and use their brains and science, you need to read this one. You REALLY really need to read this graphic novel!

This was actually a really fun idea, It's basically a genius girl meets clifford the big red dinosaur! It has some really nice character development that happens in this book, story to start was a little rocky and leaves you on a serious cliffhanger (the good kind!). Really great if you love kids who are very capable, independent, and of course DINOSAURS! ~Ashley
