Stargirl: The Lost Children has been such a wonderfully pleasant surprise, and issue #3 continues the book's upward trend. Read Full Review
Stargirl: The Lost Children #3 lacks the wild punch of an action comic but delivers with some Golden Age feels. It adds an intriguing bite to munch on with the time-displaced storyline and mixes it all up with a lighthearted, entertaining theme that will certainly keep the interests of the classic fans. This series is meant for any long-standing, diehard comic book lover whos a true fan. Its steeped with history and wrapped with some amazing art that pays perfect homage to the past but also connects it to the current artistry found in comics today. I cant recommend Stargirl: The Lost Children #3, as well as this series, enough. The new or average fan may have to do some internet sleuthing to figure out who all these characters are and where they were last seen. But trust me, itll be worth it! Read Full Review
Stargirl: The Lost Children #3 is a character-driven issue that hits you with forgotten classic characters and introduces you to new ones that you will want to watch. Geoff Johns and Todd Nauck reveal just enough to keep you wondering but also add more to the mystery, making this story a hidden gem of a DC comic. Read Full Review
The mini-series is now halfway through. With all the introductions well and fully handled, Johns and company can go about the business of diving into the heart of the action, which should be a lot of fun. Once things really get going, the storys momentum should kick in and take things in an enjoyable direction moving forward. Theres real potential in the sidekicks getting off the island and moving into the rest of the DC Universe. Johns has done a nice job of making an engaging ensemble that should be fun if they manage to make it beyond the mini-series. Read Full Review
Superman might not be bursting into saving the day for a last-minute rescue, but Stargirl and her new allies seem poised to take down at his new threat of Childminder and have some classic old school slanting fun in the interim. Read Full Review
If you haven't tried this series yet, do so. Stargirl is a great character who has come a long way, and here it shows. This looks and feels like an old comic, and this is a good way for newer fans to get a handle on the Golden Age without having to absorb loads of back issues. Read Full Review
It's fun, and there's nothing wrong with that. You can still have a great comic even if it isn't earth shattering or genre melting. Stargirl: The Lost Children #3 is a fun comic that can be enjoyed by all ages. It has the right elements that recall the great comics of the Bronze Age. Not only does this series throwback to older characters, but it utilizes storytelling and tone that is from a less complicated time. Read Full Review
You all should be reading this!
Perfect comic
I find it a little too long on the presentation. A full splash page would have suffise. The story was still interesting for both court part and Emiko part. I was looking for secret so the Garrick girl was a half surprise (I did have spoiled myself). I wonder if childminder will be secret because for now no sign of her and we are at the half of this title. SpBut she is on the cover and I can’t believe it was a mistake.
Todd Nauck is unstoppable!
Hard to rate this since a good chunk is devoted introducing or re-introducing kid sidekicks. Oh, most of them are promising, but it got crowded. I really if Johns has any plans for this horde of time lost kids and teens, and if DC will let him follow through.
Also, makes me fell really old that the post-Crisis Newsboy Legion has been gone so long that they qualify as forgotten kid sidekicks.
This issue was a bit slow. We got a reveal of the villain and a very looong introduction to all of the kids. I know that they don't have a semblance of time on the island, but they know they can't escape. What have they been doing this whole time? I am interested to see what happens after the reveal of the female flash.
I still like Geoff Johns' wrting but I'm confused why should I care for these new sidekicks.
