The use of color is beautiful throughout the book, and not just when the art from Ashley is involved (although her graffiti works are dazzling!).ĭC rates this as a "graphic novel for kids". This story has a ton of funny moments, especially with the banter between Kitch and Ashley because they have nearly the same humor style. Ashley's experimentation with the body paints is fascinating, and there are so many combinations to try that no action sequence is ever the same. It's the greatest thing to happen in her life so far, until Ashley finds herself pursued by a government agency that wants those paints back! Now she has to make hard choices to protect her new parents and learn what it truly means to be a family.įrom writers Jennifer Muro ( Star Wars: Forces of Destiny) and Thomas Krajewski ( Netflix's Buddy Thunderstruck) and artist Gretel Lusky comes a brand-new superhero for the DC Universe in a story that is alternately fun, dramatic, emotional, and uplifting.Ashley is a great lead character, and I sincerely wish all foster children would find a family as perfect for them as the Nolans are for Ashley.
But her life quickly gets more complicated when she also finds a suitcase full of specially enhanced body paints, changing her from artist to the world's newest superhero. Things start looking up for Ashley when she finds new, loving parents, a best friend, and an outlet for her creative skills.
With a father in prison, Ashley has bounced from foster home to foster home and represents a real challenge to the social workers who try to help her-not because she's inherently bad, but because trouble always seems to find her.
Thirteen-year-old Ashley Rayburn is an upbeat girl with a decidedly downbeat past. Artistry and super-heroics collide ain this new superhero story!
