Two teens are brought together in ‘Beast Boy Loves Raven’
I had a great time reading Raven. It was a well written graphic novel that told the earlier days of this young hero. Beast Boy was another fun read that revealed secrets about the origins of another young hero. When I heard about Beast Boy Loves Raven I couldn’t wait to read it. I was able to get a digital copy of this graphic novel and here is what I thought of it.
You can read the plot for Beast Boy Loves Raven here:
It seems like years, but it’s only been a few days since Raven Roth recovered her memories; trapped her demon father, Trigon, in her amulet; and had her heart broken for the first time. But she doesn’t have time to think about the past…she has to focus on finding a way to get rid of Trigon for good.
Garfield Logan still can’t believe he has powers that allow him to change into different animals, but the price of knowing that his parents kept this secret hidden from him just feels too high. And what’s more, his difficulty controlling these abilities could have unexpected consequences.
Both are seeking answers from the one person who seems to have them all figured out: Slade Wilson.
When their paths converge in Nashville, Raven and Gar can’t help but feel a connection, despite the secrets they both try to hide. It will take a great amount of trust and courage to overcome the wounds of their pasts. But can they find acceptance for the darkest parts of themselves? Or maybe even love?
I had a great time reading this graphic novel. Slade wants to meet both of these young heroes so they wind up in the same town. This gives them a chance to meet in person and for a while they have a lot of fun together. The story takes a perilous turn once they both wind up captured. To get out of this place they will both have to reveal things about themselves they fear will bring an end to this friendship. Yet as this story comes to a close something unexpected ends up happening instead.
Beast Boy Loves Raven is available now. You can order this graphic novel on Amazon, at Barnes and Noble and Indiebound.
