I really enjoyed this story. There was a bit of nostalgia in it as I was around when Blue Devil made his first appearance. I liked the main character even though she had some self-doubts to work through. I would have liked to have gotten to know her brother more than we did. Maybe the next book! I think school-aged kids will like this and adults will get a kick out of the throwbacks to the adult versions of the characters.

This book was great. A cute introduction to some DC characters, though probably more entertaining for avid DC Comics readers. I loved the illustration style--it matched perfectly with the characters' deadpan humor. Will definitely be recommending to my regular graphic novel readers at the library.

DC Comics provided an early galley for review.
This comic for kids takes some classic characters from DC's various eras of publishing and brings them together for a whole new audience. This looked like a fun romp that I wanted to check out.
Reading this took me back to the days of summer vacation as a kid. The artwork has a very clean but detailed style to it (giving me an indy comics vibe). The way that so many of DC's magic-related characters are reimagined works really well for the story too. Long time fans will enjoy the various Easter eggs throughout.
Both the young and young at heart will enjoy reading this seven-chapter comic story.

That was so much fun! I will definately recommend it to kids who love comic books, and parents at the library who want to share their love of comic books with their kids. I have comic book nerd friends and coworkers with children, who try to read books with their kids as a kind of family book club. I think this would be great for that.
