Teen Titans: Beast Boy by Kami Garcia
5.0
I received an ARC of this title from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
17 year old Garfield "Gar" Logan is sick and tired of being short, scrawny, overlooked, and only good for jokes. When he finds out that the supplements he takes affect his pituitary gland, he takes a risk and stops taking them. Overnight, he grows six inches, his voice deepens, and his muscles are huge, and a few not-so-well-thought-out stunts launch him into the school's "It" crowd. Gar is thrilled, but quickly things stop being everything he dreamed of. He can see exceptionally well in the dark, animals love him, and his skin feels tight. Soon, he finds himself transforming into animals--but why? How did it happen? And what does it mean for his future?
The second in the Teen Titans Graphic Novel series by Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo focuses on everyone's favorite green shapeshifter, Beast Boy himself! Readers who grew up with the "Teen Titans" cartoons will love this new backstory for Beast Boy, and newcomers to the series will enjoy this introduction to this beloved character.
