Greater-Scope Villain: Louise's parents, who cast a spell on her and the entire lodge so that she could be happy. Dwindling Party: The cast all realize that they could get taken away by the Chaperones if they screw up, and at least two unnamed people and Pomeline actually are. None of them die, however. DC's Saved by the Belle Reve - This is an anthology book that includes the first official Gotham Academy story by the original creative team since Gotham Academy Second Semester! As I'm writing, this is the last of the major Gotham Academy stories. Gotham Academy Vol. 3: Yearbook - This trade is honestly non-essential reading in my opinion. It doesn't further the plot established by the previous books, but is more of a fun anthology series. It features short stories created by many artists/writers starring the cast of Gotham Academy, plus a fun standalone issue written by the original Gotham Academy creators. Collects Gotham Academy #13-18 plus Gotham Academy Annual #1 I do think this is the right direction DC need to be moving in: diversifying and appealing to a growing comics audience that is filling up with more and more female readers who’re looking for comics for them. But I also think that same audience would want less cliched stories and more engaging, imaginative ones with protagonists who are less cold and distant and more personable like Marvel’s Kamala Khan.An Aesop: The adults in your life were your age at one point, and had pretty much all the same problems.

This series provides examples of:

Mal, despite her punk appearance, is the most cautious and sensitive of the group. She is Korean-American. [11] She specializes in crafting elaborate plans. She is often paranoid about the dangers facing them at the camp, has a fear of rivers, lakes, and other bodies of water, and is watched over and protected by Molly, whom she loves romantically. They often hold hands and share panels together as a couple. Rosie is investigating a seemingly abandoned lodge near the camp when she gets confronted by a mysterious creature. She manages to shoot off a flare before it takes her away, alerting the Lumberjanes and prompting them to search for her. Given the minor Running Gag in Lumberjanes about how Mal's plans tend not to be used, her crying Tears of Joy after being told by Maps that her plans are great is this. April has a flair for the dramatic and a love of puns, and habitually takes notes on the various puzzles the group encounters in her diary. Though outwardly the least physically imposing Lumberjane, she is revealed to be the strongest after successfully arm wrestling a giant living statue. She is also the fact-finder and knowledge base for most of their adventures, and is always ready to face the unknown. She is Jo's best friend, and was the first person Jo came out to. As of issue 73, she has every badge available to Lumberjanes.

Perhaps one of the reasons I enjoyed this was because of all the tiny love. Teens (aged 15-ish?) who are having their little crushes and doing cute flirting with each other and maybe falling in love for the first time. But, you know... with secret cults and possible ghosts and secret passageways and stuff. <3 Mistaken For Crush Theft: Twice, friendly interaction with Kyle makes Olive a target of Louise's rage.
