After reading a couple of reviews I noticed a bunch of dudes complaining that Starfire is a sexbot slut. Not Jason or Roy….. just Starfire. I guess they didn’t notice Roy half naked on the beach consenting to have sex with her. How dare that alien chick kick way more ass then the guys and look hot at the same time? It’s like the writer is catering to a young male demographic or something……. crazy! I will admit it is very weird that she can’t remember her immidiate past and her character’s inclusion on the team is justified by her being raised in slavery. Despite this criticism this book is still my Pick of the Week. Why you ask. Well, the art and layouts are stunning for starters, the dialogue is surprising and witty, and the action is both dynamic and badass. I really can’t talk up the art enough. The faces on all the characters seem expressive and real. I mentioned the tight dialogue and that great writing really makes you care for these characters more. I never liked Jason Todd or Roy Harper, but now I’m looking forward to getting to know this motley crew. This title has a lot of potential for being both different and cool.

Story: 4 - Very Good
Art: 5 - Excellent
