Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for granting me free access to the advanced digital copy of this book, as this book has already been published, I will not share my review on Netgalley at this time.

This hit me with all the video game nostalgia. The art's a little zany but I enjoyed it. The story also felt a little short but that made for a quick read.

Dul is reminiscing about a video game from her childhood. She wanted the hottest video game for her birthday as a young adult. Her mom misunderstood and got her Super Trash Clash, the worst game. Her mom is single and works hard and Dul tried to seem grateful but she really didn't like it. So she was able to trade it with a friend for the game she wanted but she felt bad when her mom asked about it and tried to get it back. She now, as an adult, feels positive memories about the game. The story illustrates a great relationship between Dul and her mother. This story was short and sweet but also a little flat.

Sadly, my Netgalley app download expired before I came to read this intriguing comic/graphic novel 🥲 From the blurb, it looked promising, but as for the expiration issue, I can't give any feedback.

This is an adorable graphic novel about a girl who rediscovers a video game she discarded in her childhood. It approaches its themes of being a woman in gaming, single parentdom and not having money for the things you want with such care and grace.

The art style is wonderfully zany. It skillfully manages to be humourous and witty at the same time as giving deep emotion to the themes explored throughout.

I would absolutely read another graphic novel by Camancho, this one was fantastic.

Super Trash Cash is the perfect graphic novel for anybody who loves video game nostalgia. This series has many other core elements, such as friendship, familial bonds, and why we hold so tightly to the things we cherish as children.

I didn't know what to expect going into this graphic novel. Mostly, the artwork caught my attention, but the plot quickly became the show's star. Interestingly, this story ends up hitting hard emotionally. I feel like this is the tone many coming-of-age or reflective stories try to nail but miss. However, Super Trash Cash did it perfectly, with the side of a hilarious title to boot.

Overall, I enjoyed this relatively quick and emotional read, and I highly recommend it to anyone else.

Super Trash Clash is a Korean comic translated. It is the story of a young girl who wants a video game but knows that mom can't afford it. The story is adorable and so sweet. I love the art because it has that childlike feel to it that is perfect for the story. Everything has soft edges. I cannot wait to get my hands on this book. I called my comic shop to make sure they had copies in. This is going to be a reread.

5 stars.

3.5-4 ⭐️
This was such a cute story and the art style is stunning! The comic is fairly simple but that doesn’t take away from the beautiful story being told about Dul and her mom through the tale of a video game from Dul’s childhood. This story follows Dul wanting a game growing up and her mom surprising her with a game but it not being the right one, Dul trades it but finds her self regretting it and she goes through an adventure to get it back. By the end of the book you are shown the love between Dul and her mom through this story about a game, I love how her mom handles Dul telling her and you really see how much she cares for her kid.

Short and sweet. This was so relatable and stressful but meaningful at the same time. I don’t want to say too much because it is only 100 pages, but it captures that nostalgic gaming goodness that many of us share from childhood. 10/10

This graphIc novel was short and sweet. I enjoyed the touching story of Dul not realizing what she had when she had it and the love of a parent. The artwork was fresh and fun while the story was easy to follow and relatable to students. This will surely be easy to book talk.

Thanks to Netgalley for providing me an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This was such a short, sweet graphic novel. I love how it fit so much heart into its story - the dynamic between our main and her mom was wonderful, and I thought it was a lovely story. It was really well done, and I thought the art was right up my alley as well!

Cute graphic novel that explores relationships through the purchase of a video game. A roller coaster of emotions from receiving a gift you didn't want, to it becoming a prized possession. Exploration of human connectedness with gamer characters.

This is such a sweet and touching story about what video games and family mean to people. I loved the illustration style, it was so easy to get sucked into the story. I did in fact tear up at the end.

Super Trash Clash is a graphic novel with much more depth behind the story than the title and cover would have you believe! Its a lovely homage to the nostalgia of times passed and how certain items/gifts from people we love can hold so much emotion and specialness to them! STC really encompasses how even the smallest of things, things we maybe don't even like in the moment, can end up being so important to us later in life because of its origin. I really enjoyed this one, it was touching with very pleasing art. Definitely one to recommend!

This was a really cute graphic novel about a girl that wants a certain video game for her birthday. Her mom works really hard to get her that game but on her birthday when she opens the present, she finds out that her mom got her the wrong game. So she trades the game. Then she feels guilty and tries to get the game back - which is the plot of the book! It's really sweet and the artwork is great. Overall, a great graphic novel.

Do you have that one special thing that was a gift that just triggers a memory that you love so dearly? Well that is what this graphic novel depicts. It was cute and fun but I could have used a little more story. It was a simple conflict and resolution but it was a heartfelt tale made with love.
