Summary
This is issue #8 of DC's 2015–2016 Starfire solo series, co-written by Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti, drawn by Emanuela Lupacchino and others, released in North America on January 13, 2016, 32 pages. The story picks up from the end of issue #7: Starfire, now settled in Key West, Florida, has cleared up the dealings surrounding a dangerous weapon called "Trigger" together with her former Teen Titans teammate Nightwing, Dick Grayson, and the two grow closer in the process. In this issue, the forces behind the scenes have not given up—first they send someone to snipe at the pair at sea, then they hire someone to follow them. Starfire tries to fit into life on Earth in her own way while torn between old bonds and her new small-town boyfriend Sol; Nightwing prepares to leave to keep tracking the buyer behind it all. Meanwhile, tension also arises in Sol's relationship with his local partner "Rave." Starfire, who debuted in DC Comics Presents #26 in 1980, has long been one of the most recognizable members of the Teen Titans; this issue continues the series' light, bright tone with a touch of romantic entanglement. This is Volume 8 of the series.
Editor's review
如果此前只从《少年泰坦》动画里认识星火,这本个人连载会提供一个更生活化的她:她住进海边小镇,学着用人间的规则购物、吃饭、交朋友,把外星公主的力量收进日常的琐碎里。康纳与帕尔苗蒂这对长期合作的编剧组合擅长写轻喜剧式的对白,配上卢帕基诺细腻明快的线条,整册读起来像一集轻松的美剧。第 8 期正好处在连载的中段转折点:夜翼登场带来旧日情谊的回响,也让星火不得不面对「爱在当下」与「想要更多」之间的心思。它更像一块拼图,而不是独立的完整故事,因此建议连着前后几期一起读。对喜爱 DC 女性角色个人刊、偏好温情而非黑暗基调的读者,这本值得放进收藏夹。

Reading tips

- 留意星火的旁白口吻,她的「地球用语误解」是这册的主要笑点来源。
- 读后可与《少年泰坦》时期的故事对照,看她从队友到独立主角的变化。
- 若追夜翼线,可配合同期《格雷森》系列阅读,理解他为何匆匆离开。
