About this deal

Featuring a vibrant rainbow design, and our super-sized Q logo, you won't find a more stylish way to make a statement. The first little bits of hair are pushing their way up from my face, and my voice dropped so early it's almost a lost cause. A few of her colleagues suggest that Greywytch stop being such an asshole, but her EXTRAORDINARILY inappropriate comments are mostly tolerated.

It should be the happiest time of her life, but Dannys first weeks finally living in a body that fits her are more difficult and complicated than she could have imagined. While the story has to be kept at a particular length, I blazed through it so quickly, I wouldn’t have minded a little more to for development from those people who tried to control their child for different reasons.Danielle is just a trans kid trying to survive long enough to escape home and start hormones when she turns eighteen. In an impressive debut, Daniels skillfully conveys Danielle’s pain, confusion, and emotional complexity as she faces a host of detractors and conflicts. I can tolerate bad writing and meh plot if the characters are multi-dimentional but it definitely wasn’t the case here. On the other hand, given the sheer number of positive reviews out there, I do think that it’s important to address some of the problematic aspects of the story. Between her father’s dangerous obsession with “curing” her girlhood and her fellow superheroes arguing over her place in their ranks, Danny feels like she’s in over her head.

However some of the reviews I’ve seen for it make me think it suffers from the same issues with generalizing and stereotypes. The white capes in their gleaming downtown tower offer unlimited resources and government support, but some seem reluctant to accept a transgender Dreadnought. I really appreciated that even though Danny's superpowers make her almost invincible, it never feels like there are no stakes.I don't know what would happen if I tried, but I have a screaming animal instinct that tells me not to even consider it.
