BONUS REVIEW by Stephen Banas
The Super Young Team is a cool concept and I prefer the way DC handles their hipster group much more than Marvel’s trainwreck attempt. This first issue gives a fast pace glimpse at DC’s unsung heroes during Final Crisis as they are tossed into the PR spotlight. This was an enjoyable issue that had a lot of style to it and that’s what kept me interested while I was reading. The art grew on me and is a great fit for this story so that was a plus. Overall there was a lot of solid foundation laid for the rest of the series and a quick little fight near the end just to keep the allure. There’s promise here and I would recommend picking it up.
