Rainbow Brite

pick

This comic was a delightful burst of nostalgia for me. I watched some of the original series when I was a kid (in the 90s) and I loved it. This comic is a fun reimagining of the characters and world. I enjoyed seeing the brief explanations on the science behind color and light, and nod to LARPing as well. Not a huge fan of the sprite character designs. #nostalgia #reboot #rainbowbrite #90sKid #comic #science

I‘ve been putting off reading this graphic novel because I want to savor it. (Does anyone else ever do that?) But I think today is a great day to invite some rainbows into my life. 🌈

RowReads1 Yup! I put things aside to savor all the time. 4y

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟5 🌟
This revision of a childhood classics is absolutely wonderful. We are in modern times, and color has been leaching out of the world. Two girls, who don‘t “play” they LARP, are warriors both in their minds and in reality. Wisp gets transported Rainbow land and helps Twink to find the color that is missing. This book has action, it has heart, it has my approval. (down)

LibrarianRyan Other things to love. Rainbow Brite is drawn her age. She is covered up, even in the short skirts she has shorts on underneath. She was not made into a trite, or oversexed teen, but stays the brave and loving hero she has always been. I can not wait to read the rest of this series, and hope they keep it going.

LibrarianRyan @dariazeoli no no no no no 5y

jmtrivera The same author also wrote Princeless, which is about a Princess who saves herself. They comment on appropriate armor for women in that one too. It's great! 😊
