Rated T
Infinitely endearing and consistently charming with human, relatable characters and premises that jump off the page while still hitting close to home. This issue shows off everything this book does well and makes it all look so easy. Read Full Review
Overall, the issue has a lot of promise, especially when you find out that the "Smartest Person in the World" might not be able to use her smarts to deal with Kingpin's plan... whatever it is. Read Full Review
Issue #32 is a major upswing from the last arcs mini-crossover event. It sets up a great villain and hints at some interesting character development but does feel a little short. Now we just have to wait and see if we can get Princess Powerful in here too. Read Full Review
Lunella struggles with her brain-switching while an adopted Fisk kid stirs up trouble at her school. This issue launches a promising story and features some excellent supporting cast interactions. The critique of performance-based standardized testing is a little feeble and 20 years late, but it does a good job of explaining the Wrongness of the idea to young readers. This is an excellent opening chapter and it builds up a strong "and then what happened?" feeling of anticipation.
