As a mom of girls who absolutely love the DC Super Hero Girls I thought they did a great job with the characters and story. My girls had a fun time reading this with me and they agreed it was a must buy!

This continues to be a fun, exciting series - a great read for all superhero fans!

Yet another fantastic addition to the DC Superhero girls library. Great messages and storylines with engaging characters. Would highly recommend for children aged 7+ (and yes, that includes boys as well)

Barbara is having a problem with her Dad being around too much (he's a teacher at her school), but that's just the tip of the iceberg in this TPB (heh, the iceberg thing is actually kinda funny in the context of this book).

We then meet a Dr. Faulkner and Mayor Sackett when S.T.A.R. Labs explodes. The story that gets published in the Daily Planet is that it's some sort of drill or something, but Batgirl and Lois Lane (whoo!! Lois) don't believe that, and did deeper.

We also get to see some Jimmy as a turtle guy in this, and I thought that the story lines were even better than previous of these TPBs, and definitely more layered. It was pretty cool. Oh, and we also get to see some really cool Ivy and Harley Quinn scenes too, always a good thing.

I received this book via Netgalley thanks to DC Entertainment.

Loved the emphasis on Lois Lane and Poison Ivy in this volume. The matchmaking piece felt like more of a means to an end than a major plot point. Of all of the graphic novels in this series, I believe this one is the best of the bunch.

4 stars.

Such a fun read. This will appeal to younger girls. I found the story plot interesting enough to hold my attention. I really enjoyed seeing all my favourite female superhero characters again. Girls need positive role models and I think these characters do a great job of that. The illustrations are really quite good and colourful.

This is another great story about the DC Super Hero Girls!

One of the great things about this book is that it featured some non-superhero characters along with the Super Hero Girls. Lois Lane and Commissioner Gordon played an important part in this story. They don’t have super powers so they had to use their intelligence to help the Super Hero Girls.

I love how the Super Hero Girls are a younger version of their adult counterparts. My favourite is Harley Quinn, and she’s so funny in this story. When everyone gets the alert on their alarm to wake up and get to work, most of the girls get up, but Harley whacks her alarm with her mallet and goes back to sleep. She brings a lot of humour to this story.

I loved this book! It’s great DC Super Hero Girls fans of all ages.

There’s nothing that I love more than an awesome and positive display of girl power. In a world bogged down with male heroes, its so refreshing to see the ladies of DC Comics take the much deserved spotlight. Not only do the DC Super Hero Girls always save the day, but they never fail to prove that the super-villains should never underestimate them.

Shea Fontana’s sixth installment of the DC Super Hero Girls graphic novel series is packed full of Pow! as the girls of Super Hero High try to plan a school dance, find a date for Commissioner Gordon, and track down the mystery behind an explosion at S.T.A.R. Labs. The story is centered around Batgirl and Lois Lane as they investigate, but features favorites, like Wonder Woman, Bumblebee, and Harley Quinn. While the hi-jinx at S.T.A.R. Labs are solved a little too quickly, the story stays true to the series’ themes of friendship, truth, and the super hero way.

Date with Disaster! is a great graphic novel for younger fans who aren’t ready for the gritty darkness of other DC titles. The art style brings out the colorful and fun style of the story. The characters are relatable, positive role models and almost real in their teenage antics (think Harley Quinn, Matchmaker). The storytelling stays very consistent with the other DC Super Hero Girls titles, both novel and comic, so long time fans and new readers alike will enjoy the adventure.

4/5 Stars.

I received a free e-ARC of DC Super Hero Girls: Date with Disaster! from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

The every-kid pathos of the previous books in the series doesn't figure as large in this one but it's an interesting step towards what makes someone a superhero rather than a super villain, a big question in a series where ambiguous characters like Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn are young and relatively innocent. More in terms of how young kids might enjoy it, it's another action-packed story with lots of laughs thrown in. My daughter falls well below the target age for these and she was still mesmerized, I think we re-read the chapter on Ivy's backstory at least 5 times.

Okay so I might like this series(dolls included) a bit more than  my 9 year old, ok at least as much as she does.

This story was cute. I like the drawing. my daughter is currently reading it, since its on my phone she doesn't get to read it for very long lol but I Hope to update with her thoughts when I have them

I did cringe when BatGirl tried to set her dad up on a dating site and expected it wouldn't end well. Loved that the whole story was in one book. Can't wait to get my hands on more of these....for both myself and my daughter lol.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

I haven't read any of the other Super Hero Girls books, but this one was ADORABLE. Very kid-friendly, but a fun plot, and the art is a lovely, clean style with engaging colors. I will say that I felt there was a missed opportunity to give Harley and Ivy a romantic moment on a par with Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor's (there's a school dance that Harley is trying to get people dates for, Supergirl is dismayed that Harley didn't have time to find a date for herself, Harley says she doesn't need a date so long as she has Ivy; "Ivy is my date" would have worked just as well, would have required zero art changes, and would have meant a lot) but that minor quibble aside, there was a lot of very sweet backstory with Ivy and Harley and just in general I enjoyed the book a lot.

This has been on my to-read list for a bit now, and given that I'm stuck in bed sick, I finally had time to give it a read.

What's so wonderful about the DC Super Hero Girls series is that it presents fun and relatable heroes for the younger demographic to look up to. The ability to tell stories about overcoming difficult situations, accepting who you are, all while keeping a light hearted tone is important and that's where this book succeeds. There are some matters that could be relatively dark, and yet, it's not presented in a scary matter because it understands its audience. These characters behave like actual teenagers. They know their limitations, they're awkward, they screw up, but most importantly, they learn to accept their faults.

I'm baffled as to why it has taken me so long to check out these books, as I've been excited ever since it was announced DC was doing a Super Hero Girls line focusing on their popular heroines, but I'm glad I finally got around to reading it. And more importantly? I can't wait to check out further installments.

With wonderful art and a fun, thrilling story, Date with Disaster! is easily worth a read for DC Comics fans.

My daughter really enjoyed these books, and this one I’m sure she will love as well. The colors and illustrations are bright and exciting and the plot and story is just as fun and empowering as I’d hoped. It was a lot of fun.

My daughter LOVES the DC Superhero Girls! She enjoyed reading this and I think other kids will too!

The graphics were really cute and the girls were adorable but the storyline was just blah. I lost focus several times and did not want to finish the story. I have never really read comics before and this one did not inspire me to start. Tha being said I do believe that young girls would like it and could relate to the characters and the issues in the story. I would recommend this story to my niece to read.

The sixth installment in the popular DC Super Hero Girls comic series is similar to the previous five: it's filler material with likable characters and colorful layouts. While the art is adequate, the plot is thin and the dialogue is a mess, if not outright confusing for a 7- or 8-year-old. My daughter loves this franchise, and I am sure that she, and many other young girls, will enjoy this volume just as much as the previous volumes. Still, I can't help but wish that the series incorporated the humor of the Lego DC Super Hero Girls shows and spent a bit more time on the artwork. I do appreciate that there are themes of friendship and female empowerment throughout, but even those themes can feel superficial and forced in the stereotypes of the story line.

Recommend to: girls in 3rd-5th grade who enjoy the DC Super Hero Girls characters

This was really fun to read. I would certainly recommend it to my female students who want to read about girl superheroes! I would also recommend it to any of the guys looking for the same. But typically, they have been happy with the classroom selection I have, whereas the girls are always looking for more Harley.

Shea Fontana continues to deliver with this series. Recommended for kids interested in superheroes. Strong female characters and story lines.

I ordered two DC Super Hero Girls books for my library before reading this. I'm waiting for them to arrive. I have to admit, I'm a bit irritated at myself that I ordered them at all after reading this ARC (especially since it costs so much more to get library binding). The story line is disjointed, the transitions are stilted and confusing, and overall it was a huge disappointment. I don't think I'll be ordering any more of this series. I know it'll fly off of the shelves because of the concept and the brightly colored, adorable drawings (the main redeeming feature of this series), but I just can't bring myself to get more.

Fontana does it again with DC Super Hero Girls: Date with Disaster. The graphic novel is quick and easy to read and the different dates set up throughout the book help move the story along. We love DC Super Hero Girls in our house, so this book was an easy win!
