As a teen services librarian with 12 years under my belt, I’m delighted to see DC and Marvel finally making an effort to write comics that appeal to more than just the cis het white male demographic. I’m even more pleased when the characters are funny and snarky and talk and look like real teens. Don’t like cursing? Well you probably haven’t been reading any young adult novels in the past 20 years. Or hanging out with teenagers

trust mariko tamaki to write teenagers! wonderfully funny and though it's a familiar set-up this still felt fresh and interesting. i especially appreciated the plot structure (that the story didn't just drop off after the climax). pays homage without being annoying about it. so fun to read!
Credit where credit is due - Nightwing was drawn with an amazing tush.
Real quick read, def not the best but it was sort of entertaining
La vida de una adolescente que tiene una relación conflictiva con su madre que resulta ser una famosa superheroína. Me gusta como evoluciona la protagonista, pero resuelve todo en un ex-machina que anula dicha evolución. Una historia con un buen desarrollo que termina fallando por un mal final.
Spoiler
Al final, una historia sobre una chica que trata de vivir su vida a la sombra de una madre famosa termina siendo sobre su resentimiento por no tener el talento o la fama de dicha madre.

This was a super enjoyable - A really great standalone DC comic about a coming of age superhero. Whilst set in the Teen Titans universe it really could have been any coming of age story, beautiful art and a truly down to earth story.
Ehh this was not my favorite of the DC YA graphic novels. As much I love Starfire I cannot say the same about Mandy. I understood why Mandy was so mad at students but her mom. I just didn't get why she was so mad at her. I enjoyed the art style over all. But I did not really like the plot/villain of the story it just to come out of no where and in a way convenient for the story. I wanted to like this book more but just didn't.
Mariko Tamaki ne me déçoit jamais. Cette fois on part à la rencontre de Mandy, fille de la super héroïne Starfire. Mandy par contre n'a pas de pouvoirs et est assez soûlée par toutes ces histoires d'avenir et d'université.
J'ai bien aimé le déroulement de l'histoire même si j'aurais aimé voir un peu plus de dialogue à la fin car il reste des questions sans réponse....
