The Unstoppable Wasp Vol. 1: Unstoppable! by
3.0
3.5 stars
I picked up The Unstoppable Wasp because a) I first saw it at the bookstore so it was fate b) I had just rewatched Ant-Man in preparation for Ant-Man and the Wasp. This one follows Hank Pym and Maria Trovaya's daughter, Nadia, and it was so much fun!
It was such an empowering read, about the cleverest female teenagers in the world, how they could team up to change and save the world. This first volume mainly focused on the creation of the team and I really liked that. It was a bit cheesy at times and Nadia was a bit over the top at first, plus she read a bit younger than she was supposed to be at times, but that's truly okay. It's addressed to a younger audience for sure, so it felt a little childish sometimes, but that's because I'm older I guess, and every little girl should read about those girls and that's what matters.
I also loved the pop culture references! Harry Potter! Star Wars! Even Downton Abbey! I AM LIVING FOR IT! I haven't mentioned how diverse the cast of characters was as well?? I'm so happy about that. We also got super cool superheroes cameos such as Miss Marvel and Bobby Morse! Anyway, it was quite good and I'm happy I picked it up. 😊
