From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Alex and Eliza and The Witches of East End comes a reimagining of Gotham for a new generation of readers. Before they became Batman, Catwoman, and The Joker, Bruce, Selina, and Jack were high schoolers who would do whatever it took-even destroy the ones they love-to satisfy their own motives.

It is, again, just the nature of the genre - are you writing something for a teen-and-up audience set in a high school, or a young reader book about high schoolers? If you’re itching for something that feels a bit younger, Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo’s Teen Titan books might be a solid alternative, or Sarah Kuhn, Nicole Goux, and Cris Peter’s stellar Shadow of the Batgirl.

Ultimately, the biggest problem of Gotham High is its plot. While the art by Thomas Pitulli is effective, in a gritty way that makes the characters feel more like participants in a noir film than in a teen drama, it mires them in a dull love triangle plotline that never quite goes anywhere.

Ultimately, for me, the story only just justified its page count, and slightly under-delivered on a decent premise. It probably does enough to satisfy its target audience however, so in that regard a thumbs up from me. Read Full Review
Don't bother with this comic. Even if things weren't financially tough on everyone everywhere, this story would never be worth it. Read Full Review
