I was enjoying it well enough for the first half, but by the second, (view spoiler)[particularly when Kamala Khan shows up, (hide spoiler)] I just adored it. Long live Lunella Lafayette!
I found this one a little less enchanting than volume one. Now, don't get me wrong, I think part of that is how I feel about Marvel, and has less to due with Moon Girl.I think it is great that Marvel is showcasing characters like Moon Girl and Ms Marvel. Not only are they minority characters but they are non-trophe female characters. To me this was always the charm of Firestar (and to a lesser degree Scarlet Witch), and yet, I had to watch Marvel writers constantly screw over Firestar and finall...
The Terrigen Cloud found Lunella at the end of Volume 1 but the super power it triggered is nothing like she expected!As she struggles with her new power, she's also up against Kid Kree, a new enemy from Kree Territory who is determined to bring Lunella back to his planet to stand trial for being an Inhuman defector.Ms. Marvel shows up to talk with Moon Girl and Kid Kree when their argument potentially puts citizens at risk. Ms. Marvel gives Moon Girl a message about accepting herself but Moon G...
Really geared only to younger readers than all-ages. The themes are repetitive and are about teaching acceptance. The characterizations are not always consistent and characters don't always behave logically so that the story can go the way the writer is trying to force it to.Lunella gets a new classmate who's a Kree in disguise. He's here to kidnap her but at the same time is trying to befriend her in school even though he knows who she is. It doesn't make a lot of sense. Lunella discovers her i...
This was a great follow up. The series is kind of wacky and kind of absurd, but it's fun, sincere, and has a good core.The narration gets a little repetitive in a couple points. But the simple fact is that there's a lot of good here, and I really enjoy reading it.
Dragged down a bit by poor Lunella's Inhuman ability, although I suppose it makes a certain dramatic sense in being just about the last thing she could possibly want as a special ability. Still, I really like reading her adventures.
This is more for that Middle grade age. I have to ask, is being smart considered a super power? I think it's great that Lunella is so smart and isn't that a human thing. I guess her power is the whole Devil Dinosaur thing. I thought the Kid Kree business felt forced. There is a lot of fun in these pages, so it was a good read. I like the quirkiness of the comic. After reading other graphic novels, I am feeling Marvel and DC are rather 2 dimensional much of the time. I will continue on with this
Oh my god this is the cutest comic you guys.I'm not the biggest fan of comics lately, particularly Marvel, as they all seem to be like "CIVIL WAR II" and I'm like, no one wanted Civil War I, why is there Civil War II, not even Ms. Marvel can make me care about that bullshit. But this adorable little book, much like my other favorites Ms. Marvel and Squirrel Girl, has zero Civil War and 100% amazingness.Our heroine, Lunella Lafayette, is the cutest nine-year-old you'll ever meet, and definitely t...
Volume two wasn't as good as volume one. I don't remember Lunella being so crabby and mean in the first one. I did like her newly discovered inhuman power, and it was fun to have Ms. Marvel and the Hulk in the story.
Accepting who you are is hard for anyone, but making friends, even non-human ones, can help.
This waned a little which is sad because the last one kept me entertained the entire time. However, Lunella kicked ass even more in this one than the last! Best quote "There's no us, Marvin. There's me and there's also you. But you just take away from me."Lunella's books are all about self-acceptance which is interesting seeing as she's still suffering the effects of the terrigen mists and considers her Inhuman DNA a curse. She loves her mind and she knows she's brilliant. This book is all about...
If anything, this volume was even worse than the previous one. In Chapter 8, Lunella's Inhuman powers emerge. At first I thought that they were causing a black child to act as a savage--very distasteful, but we soon learn that her mind and Devil Dinosaur's keep switching places. It happens three times in the chapter. Then the authors seem to forget about it until Chapter 11 despite a comparatively long passage of time during which Moon Girl (now embracing the nickname as a superhero name rather
This volume starts after a Terrigen Cloud catches up to Luna and unfortunately gives her a fairly goofy Inhuman ability, which was always her worst nightmare. It causes trouble, but by using her creative genius Luna eventually figures out a solution.I enjoyed the ongoing plot for the issues and how they focused on multiple conflicts. Some are unique to our protagonist while others may be relatable to younger readers of the series. I'm looking forward to Luna's potential being recognized further
Another fun filled romp through the Marvel-verse with the smartest person on the planet: Lunella aka Moon Girl. And she's got her rompin' sompin' sidekick, Devil Dinosaur, at her side. Great stuff. Moon Girl has emerged from her chrysalis and her power? Well, read it to find out. This is such a fun comic, a through back to those crazy days of Kirby & Ditko, but without all the unnecessary exposition that Lee was so found of. Yep, this is stuff that ignites imagination and fosters enduring fandom...
The continuation of this series finds Lunella Lafayette after the terrigen cloud transforms her and the results are not at all what she expects or hopes for. Add to that a big Lego competition and the appearance of the wannabe villain Kid Kree and Moon Girl's problems are bigger than ever. A fun series rolls on and I'm excited for volume 3.
The story with Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is quite interesting and in this volume they dive into Moon Girl's power - which I didn't really get a grip on. It was more about all the problems it caused but I hope the nest album will explore more about it. Otherwise I thought this volume was hilarious! It was a good mix between humor and seriousness.
I really liked Volume One so was eager to read Volume Two. I really wanted to like Volume Two but it just didn't do it for me. There was a lot of potential to explore tween angst when Lunella comes out of her Terrigen cocoon unchanged. There are a few panels of her trying to discover her powers but it could have gone longer and become allegorical of the tween's challenge to figure where she fits in among her peers and family. So far we're not given anything about her family. That's what the Kama...
Brandon Montclare & Amy Reeder - writersMarco Failla & Natacha Bustos - artistsThis is good, goofy fun for younger readers. Luna Lafayette is a kid who acts like a kid, but is also one of the smartest people in the world. The story is a little silly - she runs around on a giant, red Tyrannosaurus Rex in the middle of New York City and all the kids in her class know her secret identity - but it works. The art by Failla and Bustos is cartoonish (in a good way) and the coloring is bright and eye-ca...
Meh. I think I'm done with the series. I loved the Ms. Marvel cameo, but the storyline was disjointed. The switching bodies trope was used too often for too little reason, and the pretexts that keep Luna in a "boring" public school are becoming more and more implausible. I did love the sass Ms. Marvel got from a human doctor about Inhumans and teen superheroes. And the plot itself was ok.But the real kicker in this was the *constant* trademark symbol for *every* freaking mention of Lego. Must be...
Okay, well we find out what changes the Terrigen cloud wrought. Poor Lunella! This development is … kind of annoying, actually. I grit my teeth every time it happens, a sign of how much I’m getting into the characters, I suppose. Also, there's a new boy in class. And he seems to have a thing for Lunella …This book is still cute. It's kind of nice to see Ms. Marvel playing the grownup for a change. Still wouldn't say it's the greatest thing I’ve ever read, but it is kind of fun. Worth reading at
