My first graphic novel in a while and from the synopsis I was expecting more than I got, there were some great additions such as accompanying music, and the way that the co-authors and illustrators all got their own little shout outs throughout the novel, but all in all it felt a little bit of an avengers rip off to me, with choppy scenes and illustrations that left a lot to be desired, not to mention there is a lot of profanity and violence throughout the book that really takes away the plot like, which could have been developed more

This was WILD. A short whirlwind of a story. Kind of reminded me of Heroes meets X Men. I hope there will be more volvimes!
Graphic: Gore
Moderate: Homophobia, Sexual content, and Car accident

Cool in concept, not so much in execution. The colors are great though.

Well, that was better that issue #2 but still too rashed. Also, I read that Youth is inspired by Frank Ocean and River Phoenix?? Don't know if that's true

Curt and Alex are bringing a very authentic story of teens with a nice twist and definitely have the culture with it.

I picked this up randomly because I really wanted a quick read to get me out of my reading slump and I dont regret this at all. First off Alex Diotto is a great artist and brought the words to life. The story was shorter than I anticipated, I liked the LGBTQ+ points but I felt as if it was pushed to the background of the story, if you eliminated that factor it did not change the out come of the story. I guess what I'm saying is I thought the mention of sexuality would influence or shape the direction of the story more, and to me it didn't. Maybe because this was the first issue that I read in the series, but it was okay.
There is no gradual build up in this story, its essentially goes to SugarHoneyIceTea fairly quickly, its so chaotic and confusing but in a good way. So kids from different backgrounds, with different types of trauma gaining super powers was already a scary cocktail I wouldn't want to drink. Somehow, I find myself wanting to know what happens next so I will be picking up more issues soon
