Rubella is a complete queen. She deserves so much more than she is given. At least she has Devil Dinosaur!

Collects #1-6 (BFF) and 7-12 (Cosmic Cooties)BFF: 5/5 LOVED IT! Really cute protagonists, terrific art, kooky bad guys, and a nice, simple storyCosmic Cooties: 4/5Also lots of fun, with great art, an interesting superpower, and a very cool villain premise that's sadly wrapped up rather abruptly... and some weird Lego product placement.Overall, excellent.

Lunella Lafayette is one smart cookie! I enjoyed learning the origins of one of the smartest character in the Marvel Universe.I absolutely love how Lunella was visualized by Natacha Bustos an Afrolatinx illustrator.Smart, black, into #science, amazing purple glasses, hangs out with a T-Rex...yeah this girl is a badass!

BFF (#1-6). A light and charming book, with two main characters who are a joy to meet. Never has Devil Dinosaur been cuter and Moon Girl is awesome. This book is also one of the few to make good use of Marvel's temporary obsession with the Inhumans: MG+DD uses the threat of Terrigen Mist as a metaphor for the fear of the changes of puberty. This book is a bit too decompressed for its own good, with the story getting a bit repetitive over its six issues as a result, but otherwise, this is a joyfu...

How could you not love this? Lunella Lafayette is a precocious nine year old with big dreams but big nightmares as well. As will happen in the Marvel universe, hijinks ensue and Devil Dinosaur, cavemen, Hulk, Ms. Marvel, Kree soldiers, and Lego get involved. It sounds ridiculous. It is fabulous. The art by Natacha Bustos is a perfect match for the book. This book is wonderful for all ages. Overall, a sincere treat to read.

This review will deal with: 1) How I feel about the narrative quality and pathos (spoiler-free!); 2) How I feel about it as a comic (in the context of comics as a format, and within Marvel), and finally 3) How I feel this book would be suited to kids! Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is a book I’d been dying to pick up for ages, both because of its quiet hype in my favourite pop culture circles, and because I adore colourist Tamra Bonvillain’s work - her work on Gerard Way’s Doom Patrol run is stunn...

A disappointment. Very weak and confusing plotting, with too much repetition & exposition. The art was alright, often cluttered. Moon Girl has great potential as a character and the message behind the title is important but as an introduction, it fell flat. I may not be the right reader for this material as I often struggle with “super-genius” characters — their creators & writers aren’t super-geniuses themselves and thus the characters often come off as less smart than they are supposed to be o...

It was a rather pleasant surprise to discover my library had a copy of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur: The Beginning and I checked it out right away.I enjoyed this comic. All the art was high quality and the story telling was pretty good too.The villains in the first half, The Killer-Folk, were kind of weak and annoying as villain characters go but Lunella’s character and her growing friendship with Devil Dinosaur made me want to keep reading. The second half had a much more entertaining villain i...

This contains Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Vol. 1: BFF and Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Vol. 2: Cosmic Cooties. I've reviewed those volumes individually & accidentally picked this up in the hopes that it was a volume I hadn't read yet.What IS new is this tome also contains the first adventure for Marvel Rising , a team up between Squirrel Girl and Ms. Marvel! I'm definitely excited & can't wait to read the first volume!

A really charming new comic book series, Moon Girl is a fantastic heroine and I want a Devil Dinosaur of my own! (7+)*Please note: this review is meant as a recommendation only. Please do not use it in any marketing material, online or in print, without asking permission from me first. Thank you!*

This was really cute and really colorful and almost exactly what I hoped it would be. I wish the writing were a bit tighter, but I guess I can appreciate how committed it is to having Luna act her age. Even a super-genius nine-year-old is going to be annoying sometimes, and that's reflected here, for better and for worse (in equal measure, I'd say). The plots are fun and introduce a lot of clever, enjoyable scenarios for Luna and her dinosaur, but the execution is often shallow and lacking in an...

Reprints issues 1-12 of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.I loved the original run of Devil Dinosaur as a kid, so this brought back all of the nostalgic vibes, in spite of it bringing Devil Dinosaur out of prehistory and into the modern Marvel Universe continuity.Nine-year-old Lunella Lafayette is a brilliant mind stuck and bored in a New York public school. She is also a carrier of the inhuman gene, and terrified of the transformation that could happen if she is exposed to the terragen mists, which

Lunella Lafayette is an excellent character: a pre-teen genius trying to figure out who she is and her place in the world. As she does this, not only does she have to contend with being the smartest person in her school, she's also worried about the terrigen mist, winning a Lego-building competition, and the giant, red, time-displaced Devil Dinosaur who has become her sidekick and who protects her with the fierce loyalty of a dog. As Lunella tries to navigate her less-than-usual life, becoming t...

this was SO MUCH FUN. my nine year old self (who could only dream of being as badass a lunella) is quaking.

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur have two fun, light-hearted adventures in this collection. The first is against a team of time traveling cavemen (Cavepeople? One of them is a woman.). The second is against Kid Kree, a child rival from the Kree Empire and perhaps a bit more. The art is beautiful. I particularly like the facial expressions on Devil Dinosaur. He's like a big puppy! The one thing that could make this better would be a bit more action.

Collects editions 1 to 12. Each 1-6 & 7-12 is its own story arch, but you should start with first six as the second arch starts where the first arch ends. Having some Marvel Universe knowledge helps.

Such a cute book! Perfect if you have younger kids who are wanting to get into comics.

This is hilariously adorable and super relatable. I only wish I had found this in middle school.

I'm a late bloomer when it come to comics/graphic novels so perhaps the age demographic this was written for is a few segments below mine BUT I still thoroughly enjoyed the tale and as a person that has loved and values children's books, I recommend folks getting this for the young girls in your life. I asked the comic store staff for something with a) a female author and/or b) female protagonist. He quickly delivered on both. Moon Girl's primary asset is her intelligence, she's into all things

Although I loved the original Moon Boy and Devil Dinosaur, Moon Girl and DD did not disappoint. The writers the artists, colorists, inkers all did their jobs and the story is entertaining and fun. I love the idea that the Terrigen mist didn't really change Lunella, just added somthing that she has not learned to control. Kid Kree is a funny character and her fourth grade class adds color and fun to the story. I want to keep reading her story and learn more about her transformation into the inhum...
