Shuri: Wakanda Forever by Nnedi Okorafor, Vita Ayala

noveladdiction's review

4.0

This cover, though adorable, is not indicative of the art inside *at all.*

Nnedi Okorafor is a genius, and even though I've already read her Shuri volumes, I gladly re-read them in this format, because I want to support everything she does.

I liked the first half better. It was a good read, but I didn't like that the artist changed. (minor, personal nitpick). I also wished they had a different villain, but the writing was fine.

A little of everything: super team-up, real science, and excellent plotting. You'll love Shuri too!

While I didn't necessarily have the background going into this, there was enough context given that it didn't matter. There's an overarching story that draws all of the different sections together, and we get to see some familiar friends, like Iron Man, Spider-Man (Miles Morales), and Ms. Marvel. The parts with Miles and Ms. Marvel were probably some of my favorite of the bunch. I love these smaller Marvel graphic novels packaged for middle grade readers. They are a great way to introduce comics, honestly!
