Shade, The Changing Girl (2016-) #1
Shade, The Changing Girl (2016-) #1 | Cecil Castellucci, Gilbert Hernandez
5 posts | 4 to read
ThereÕs no such thing as a little bit of madness. Far away on the planet Meta, LomaÕs going nowhere fast. SheÕs dropped out of school, dumped her boyfriend, and is bored out of her mind. She longs to feel things. ThatÕs where her idol, the lunatic poet Rac Shade, and his infamous madness coat come it. Loma steals the garment and makes a break across galaxies to take up residence in a new body: Earth girl Megan Boyer. Surely everything will be better on this passionate primitive planet with a dash of madness on her side and this human girlÕs easy life. Only now that sheÕs here, Loma discovers being a teenaged Earth girl comes with its own challenges and Earth may not be everything she thought itÕd be. Megan Boyer was a bully whom everyone was glad was almost dead, and now Loma has to survive High School and navigate the consequences of the life she didnÕt live with the ever-growing and uncontrollable madness at her side. Not to mention that there are people back on her homeworld who might just want ShadeÕs coat back. Written by Cecil Castellucci (THE PLAIN JANES, Moving Target: A Princess Leia Adventure), drawn by Marley Zarcone (EFFIGY) and overseen by Gerard Way, SHADE, THE CHANGING GIRL starts a whole new chapter in the story of one of comicsÕ most unique series.

"You find something early on that speaks to you. It becomes your guiding star. A poet who went to Earth to fight the madness; a bedtime story meant to make you look under the bed. Something brilliant and true. Close to the bone. It informs and molds your every moment, and leads you to the day that changes everything."

2BR02B Great cover. It looks like a nineties brit pop album. 8y
laurenanalepa @2BR02B all the art looks like that! It's actually very psychedelic. 8y

Anyone else reading this madness? Thoughts, opinions, and/or have you read any DC Young Animal titles? I'm so new to this but I'm absolutely hooked on Shade. I don't know that I like it, but I can't not read it. I think?

Eyelit Looks interesting, for sure! 8y
quirkyreader I used to read it when Shade was a man. 8y

#newcomicsday So excited for Shade the Changing Girl! Harley Quinn is so silly and I love it. Deadman is an old friend and this new book is absolutely beautiful.
