When colour is used beyond that it seems random. Sometimes, however, this is undone by the universal drabness of the David Calderon’s colouring, which for most of the book amounts to glum grey with a few muted shades to draw attention to a particular object. Picolo is key to this, his illustration deftly bringing through the necessary subtlety, expressions and the way Raven sits or stands speaking volumes. New readers are just going to accept that for the quality it is, but the real talent is in convincing anyone who knows Raven from the Teen Titans that this is just an insecure and concerned young girl unsure what’s happening. Gabriel Picolo’s intuitive cartooning has an emotional resonance to it. The downside is the voice in her head asking to be set free, and there’s also the puzzle of what Raven did before losing her memory, the significance of passages highlighted in a book and impenetrable notes. Raven seems able to hear the thoughts of others and to influence what happens to the them.

There are compensations, though, frightening as they may seem at the start of the process. This is Raven Roth, 12 th grade student, recently fostered with Natalia Navarro and her daughter Max after a car accident that’s robbed her of her memory. However, as with other DC characters involved in DC Ink titles, the Raven presented here is a troubled teen first and connected with her older version second. it makes her an odd choice for inclusion in DC’s young adult imprint.

It is unknown whether the book itself is magical.Given that to all intents and purposes in the mainstream DC Universe Raven is the devil’s daughter.

But when she reads from the book in other episodes, she is confident that all of the myths are true.

In ' Legendary Sandwich ', Raven is shocked when the sandwich myth is revealed to be true.

This particular magical book has appeared much more frequently than her miniature spellbook does.

' And the Award for Sound Design Goes to Rob'.
