Johanna Draper Carlson was kind enough to remember my work months after I sent her a review copy. She wrote up a nice review of Lightning Girl Loves Rocket Boy for her reliably excellent site, Comics Worth Reading. From the review:
"If you like the kind of superhero romance you find in comics like Avengers Academy or Young Allies, you should definitely check out this independent short graphic novel... the dialogue sounds realistic... The art is well-suited to the age group of the characters, with a slightly cartoony style that keeps things light and an interesting, thick-outline, almost layered look that makes the foreground characters pop..."
And maybe most importantly:
"It’s entertaining to read."
