Young Gotham: A New Generation of Heroes
There’s a whole new generation of heroes in Gotham City, and they’re taking out the bad guys with a style all their own. Batman’s been doing a pretty good job fighting crime for the last 75 years, but with a constant parade of super-villains, gangsters, and henchmen marching through town, it’s not like he can’t use the help. These new heroes still have a lot to learn, but they’re smart, tough, and ready for anything.

Batgirl Vol. 1: The Batgirl of Burnside (The New 52), by Brenden Fletcher, Cameron Stewart, and Babs Tarr
There’s not much room for fun in grim, brooding Gotham City. That’s why Batgirl is such a breath of fresh air. Barbara Gordon is a young, tech-savvy superhero with a hip new costume and a knack for using computers and social media (along with major butt-kicking skills) to stop crime in Gotham’s super-trendy Burnside community. When she’s not out protecting the people, she’s got classes and dates to worry about, but also a whole new crew of friends to help keep her grounded. Batgirl is smart and fun for readers of any age, with plenty of drama and superhero action.

Gotham Academy Vol. 1: Welcome to Gotham Academy (The New 52), by Becky Cloonan, Brendan Fletcher, and Karl Kerschel
Gotham City trains a new generation of heroes in this off-beat Batman spinoff. Set at über-prestigious Gotham Academy, this book stars the adventurous Olive Silverlock, her best friend “Maps” Mizoguchi, and a whole crew of friends and frenemies as they navigate the tricky prep-school social scene while investigating secret societies, super-villains, and ghosts that roam the halls. The long, weird history of Gotham is a backdrop, but this story of mystery that stalks the halls of a private school has as much in common with Harry Potter as with traditional Batman tales.

Teen Titans Go! Vol. 1: Party, Party!, by Sholly Fisch and Lea Hernandez
The Titans of Teen Titans Go! like to fight crime, sure. They’ll definitely stop the bad guys…eventually. But they’d just as soon hang out at Titans Tower having a pizza party or showing off their killer dance moves. This book spins out of the mega-popular TV series starring Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, and the gang, and kicks off with a literal food fight as some of the team’s favorite snacks come to life. These stories perfectly capture the tone of the all-ages, anime-inspired cartoon: wild, funny, and completely unhinged.
