(W) Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti (A) Emanuela Lupacchino (CA) Amanda Conner Second Print From the writers of the outrageous smash hit HARLEY QUINN comes former Outlaw Starfire in her all-new ongoing series! She's an alien warrior princess trying to find peace on Earth, and she'll fight anyone and anything to get it! Date Available: 08/05/2015
BONUS REVIEW by John "Doc" Schaefer
 With the dynamic team of Connor and Palmiotti at the helm, of all the "Oops, New 52 wasn't really all that great so we're going to screw with continuity again!" books coming out, this title seemed to have the most potential. Unfortunately, it fails to deliver. The wit and wisdom that we have come to expect from the pair is there and no one can deny that Emanuela Lupacchin's art is very good but it lacks a purpose. I think the books major failing lies in a line from page 3, "You're like a Big Orange Supergirl." Starfire has been reduced to her core concept and all the fascinating history is gone. What we are left with is a little alien girl lost on earth discovering what it's like to be human. Even the full blown sexuality of George Perez's original concept has been lost and replaced with a girl next door cute sexy that doesn't do the character justice. What we are left with is a sort of Betty/Veronica meets Brother From Another Planet relationship tale and it's not enough. I give it 4 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
