Debet, this site reveiws Graphic Novels for teens, but also has a section for younger kids:
Other Media
Discussion of Buffy and Angel comics, books, and more. Please don't get into spoilery details in the first week of release.
I was so. over. the Holocaust by the time Maus came out I never read it, ita. I don't know if it would work.
Thanks, guys.
I like Hopeless Savages. It lives in the YAF section at Durham Public Library, so I guess it would be for the right age group. I'm not sure how educational it would be considered, though. There are references (usually past tense) to drug use. There are strong female role models. There are gay relationships (not particularly explicit). It's about a family where the parents were punk rockers and the kids either rebel against (OMG he's gone corporate!) or embrace their heritage.
Here's a couple of other GN for teens sites with sections on titles for younger readers: [link]
Oh hell, here's the ALA site that I'm blatantly stealing these links from: [link]
The Owly books are awesome, but might be more appropriate for even younger readers.
Does anyone have any Nightwing OYL spoilers? I was skimming scans daily and noticed that the post of the last pages got a lot of hysterical reaction.
Apparently the only way out of the proposal is for either Oracle or Nightwing to die. I don't get that. And then someone seemed quite assured that Dick would die, but after impregnating Barbara. It's one of those things where I don't know how they can read with so much hate. I mean, just don't read, then.
Kinda like I'm trying to work out how to disentangle myself from some of the X-Titles. The post-decimation is irritating me. And I'm not sure who Emma is from one moment to another. Don't want to drop all, but some.
And while I'm irritated, what's with the sincere complaints that they shouldn't kill a character that the poster likes? Isn't that pretty much a recipe for no deaths? Should the rosters be immortal?
NIGHTWING WILL NOT DIE.
Ahem.
(Not a spoiler; just vehement fangirlishness on my part.)
And the only "spoilers," as such, that I know are from the monthly solicits for March/April/May, which state only that there are 2 Nightwings running around NYC One Year Later. And Dick also appears to be in Outsiders One Year Later, as well.
Isn't that pretty much a recipe for no deaths? Should the rosters be immortal?
Didn't Marvel do a story not too long ago about Bucky Barnes being alive after all? Thus establishing that Marvel's version of Death has a revolving door policy for anyone in a costume...
DC Panel at WonderCon. Spoilers, natch.
Hmm, so Ron Marz is boosting Kyle Rayner's power again and killing off YET ANOTHER of his girlfriends. Quelle surprise.
Wonder if there were are any handy refrigerators floating around in space during the Rann-Thanagar war ?
