Did you know there's a book about the silliest guys? This is it!
Bart is the best little guy, he's so silly. He's speedy and he can't shut up and he's the best. Bart. Connor is Connor is silly heart-throb boy. He's not straight despite popular belief, trust me on that one. Tim is here and he's a little hacker. Cassie and Cissy have very similar names and very different personalities. There's also a very scary ghost. When Cassie yelled at the justice league I was like HOLY SHIT lmao get wrecked Bats. The arc where they explained everyone's backstories was so cute, and the Tim and Dick story was adorable as usual. I am so glad they're brothers even here. Red Tornado is just as silly, loves them all but also hates them all. Codependance. Them hanging out around the campfire? Great. Them saving all those other ghosts (and the mini-arc of those 2 girls)? Amazing. The Justice League bullying them was so silly. I loved all of it. I love Bart.

Even with all the immaturity that is riddled in parts of this, it is a rather good comic series. I like that the team takes a few issues to come together and they still have to prove themselves to the JLA. Every issue feels like it has a purpose, even the ones that would be considered filler. This is an excellent series. The artwork style lacks in certain places with the exaggerated stylization, but in parts it adds to the overall immature and campy feeling to the series. Also don't get me started on Arrowette's mom. Someone needs to reintroduce this character, but with a more trauma influenced focus. She could become a very relatable character if they did. Then again, I am just finishing book one, who knows where the series goes. I will definitely be looking forward to finding out.

A 90s cartoon in comic book form. A little darker and more serious than your average Nickelodeon show for sure, but I mean all this in the best way. Dated but charmingly so.
