So, the Starfire miniseries has almost concluded. Issue 10 was out last month and issue 11 is coming out on 4/13. I have the first TPB Volume One: Welcome Home (1-6) and it's fun as hell so I'm definitely getting the second volume when it comes out.
Here's the preview which sets up the storyline: http://www.dccomics.com/reader/#/comics/361846
To my knowledge, in over 30 years of the character (not to be confused with the galactic fighter Starfire from even earlier), Kori has never had her own book, at least not for more than a one-shot. This series was great - I don't know what the SJWs would think of it but it'd be difficult for them to utterly lambaste this the way they did to Red Hood and the Outlaws. I think the difference is ultimately identity politics once again: Red Hood was written entirely by men, and Starfire is the female minority sharing a book with two male lead characters..so any criticism about "objectification" (and there's plenty of Starfire sexy talk in Outlaws) becomes amplified.
But suddenly when a book like Starfire is written and drawn by three women and one man, and the lead characters are pretty much all women (and despite constant talk about boys, it also passes the Bechdel Test quite easily), the comic is given a free pass even though it's still very sexy. Hey, works for me!
Anyway, for a reader who looks for some visual stimulation along with fantastic art and a great storyline, it is hard to beat
Kori, Atlee and Stella have to be one of the hottest female fighting teams in comics (none of their sex appeal is ever tamped down, unlike in A-Force). In the book, still somewhat naive about the world (the humor often revolves around either her innocence, or her sexy talk), and having left both the Titans and the Outlaws, she has landed in Key West chilling on the island, and hijinks of course ensue, ultimately culminating in a battle 20,000 Leagues Under The Earth (or whatever). By #10 we even get to see Stella slipping into a tight silver dress, which is nice.
Folks might want to check it out. I'm eagerly awaiting the final two issues.
Don't expect a clothes-ripping transformation and boob window on every panel, though.
