I received an electronic ARC from DC Entertainment through NetGalley.
The Super Hero Girls are creating their Science Fair projects. Something goes wrong with most of them. They finally figure out why and take down a villain who loved science but needs a lesson in communal sharing and learning. The graphics are colorful and readers will enjoy studying all the details. The text is easy to follow and brings these young women to life. Readers will relate to their lives even without super powers.

From my heart and from my hand
Why don't people understand my intention?
(Weird, ooh)
(Weird science)
Plastic tubes and pots and pans
Bits and pieces and the magic from the hand
We're makin' weird science, ooh
Things I've never seen before
Behind bolted doors, talent and imagination
Weird science
Not what teacher said to do
Makin' dreams come true, living tissue, warm flesh
Weird science, ooh
Plastic tubes and pots and pans
Bits and pieces and
Bits and pieces and (creation)
My creation, is it real?
It's my creation, ooh, my creation
It's my creation
Magic and technology
Voodoo dolls and chants, electricity
We're makin' weird science
Fantasy and microchips
Shooting from the hip, something different
We're making weird science, ooh
Pictures from a magazine
Diagrams and charts, mending broken hearts
And makin' weird science
Something like a recipe
Bits and pieces and
Bits and pieces and
my creation, is it real?
It's my creation, I do not know
No hesitation, no heart of gold
Just flesh and blood, I do not know
I do not know
From my heart and from my hand

This one was really interesting! I like these characters overall.

[I received an electronic review copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.]
3.5 stars. I have read all but one of the DC Super Hero Girls books from the original series that takes place at Superhero High School. This is part of a new series where the girls attend Metropolis High instead, so they have alter egos and have to change between their hero costumes and their school clothes. The art is different in this series - I would describe it as "softer," and it has a younger feel to it in my opinion. If I had to choose, I prefer the original series.
The story here is meaty - I felt like I got my time's worth on the story. Zee tries to help each of her friends with their science projects. I think there are something like 15 separate comics worth of material in this one book. There's a nice twist in the end that I think readers will enjoy. Fans of this new iteration will like seeing their favorite characters deal with this new challenge.

A delightful and fun read! I had so much fun reading about the adventure of the science fair project for these super hero girls. The art style was very cute and reading this felt like watching an episode from the show! The exploration of various heroes projects and while a mystery was also underway was a fun touch. The formatting of the book is very easy to read and I am sure kids will love to read this! I had an overall great time reading this book and can't wait to see what other shenanigans these girls get up to!

de meiden moeten een project verzinnen voor de science fair wat meetelt voor 80% van hun cijfer. en ze krijgen hulp van Zatara maar dat zorgt ervoor dat er van alles mis gaat. het is aan Zatara om uit te zoeken of het aan haar magie ligt of dat er iets anders aan de hand is. ben dol op de DC super hero girls strips en heb ook weer erg genoten van dit boekje.

This was another pretty typical story about feeling like you don't fit in, but finding that you have to do what's best for you. Zee is a cute character and I'm glad she got her story, given that she's not exactly one of the bigger heroes.

Why does the decent seeming person introduced early in these stories always seem to end up being the villain? Oh well, at least it came with the moral that science is cool!
