Barda

Praise

“Gorgeous, sharp-edged writing, pitch-perfect characterizations, and miles and miles of heart…This one’s a keeper!” –Diane Duane, New York Times bestselling author of So You Want to Be a Wizard
 
“Bold, brash, and beyond tough—that’s Ngozi’s beautifully rendered Barda, in all her glory. A can’t-miss from a once-in-a-generation comics talent.” —Sam Maggs, bestselling author of Star Wars Jedi: Battle Scars

“The only thing stronger than Barda’s fists is her heart. Fans will be rooting for her as she becomes the warrior she’s meant to be!” —Varian Johnson, writer of Mister Miracle: The Great Escape
 
“I loved this book! Ngozi Ukazu’s work strikes the perfect balance of epic fights, gorgeous worlds, and a hero trying her best to navigate the complexities of love and warriorhood. Be prepared for a genuinely fun read that will take you to the darkest corners of Apokolips and leave you wanting even more adventures with Big Barda.”
—Jarrett Williams, writer and artist of Hip-Hop: The Beat of America& Super Pro K.O.!

“…a fantastic balance between action and introspection. A visually arresting account of a Fury’s promising beginning.” –Kirkus Reviews 

“A love story set on a world without love, with a sort of cosmic Romeo and Juliet (with a far happier ending) at its plot’s center, Barda is a magnificent superhero comic that reads like YA sci-fi, and it finds a rich, fascinating inner life in a character who’se spent decades in the shadow of her husband or her teammates.” –School Library Journal
