review:
'Young Terrorists, Volume 1: Pierce The Veil' by Matt Pizzolo and art by Amancay Nahuelpan is a volume 1, but, if you're like me, you'll be confused at first. You may even be confused by the time it's done.

Sera is the daughter of a global bigwig, and she is accused of terrorism and interred in a detainment camp. Rather than just being some rich guy's daughter, Sera has some skills. She breaks out, and ends up being an internet star in Detroit. Along the way she collects some more people to her side, including a young man who is very down on his luck. What this group of people will do is up to future issues.

The entire 80 page volume represents the first volume and there is a lot of story thrown at the reader. There is also some confusing jabs at the megarich and corporations. There is an infographic showing Sera's family and two others, but we don't meet those two other families, so that graphic comes across as information we don't need yet. The whole thing is kind of thrown at the reader with the hope that things will make sense, and they kind of do, but I wasn't as much a fan of it. I did the like the artwork, and I am kind of interested to see where this goes.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors, Black Mask Comics, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
