Review: Shade: The Changing Girl #4

By Dustin Cabeal

I keep thinking that I’m going to drop this title for review and just read it, but then it’ll entice me just enough that I want to review it. It’s not that it’s the best of the DC’s Young Animal line, but it’s quite possibly one of the best.

Review: Shade: The Changing Girl #2

Madness is hard. I said that last time and it’s still true, but I think that writer Cecil Castellucci knows that as well. Why do I have this hunch? Probably because of the way she addresses madness several times throughout the second issue of Shade: The Changing Girl.

Review: Shade: The Changing Girl #1

Madness is a challenging story to tell. It can be everything and anything, but giving it structure and keeping it feeling like madness… is a difficult task. That’s what this series is up against, and after reading the first issue, I can understand why of all the titles announced for DC’s Young Animal, that Shade had people the least optimistic about it.
