Kori Meets Cyborg in DC’s Teen Titans: Starfire First Look

DC has shared a first look inside Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo’s next young-adult graphic novel, Teen Titans: Starfire.

Teen Titans: Starfire arrives in comic shops and bookstores early this coming July. The book serves as the fifth entry in Garcia and Picolo’s Teen Titans series of YA original graphic novels — following Teen Titans: Raven (2019), Teen Titans: Beast Boy (2020), Teen Titans: Beast Boy Loves Raven (2021), and Teen Titans: Robin (2023). At this time, DC has shared a number of unlettered preview pages, in which Kori Anders/Starfire meets friend and future teammate Victor Stone/Cyborg (though she doesn’t exactly make a great first impression).

Check out the first look inside Teen Titans: Starfire below:

What is Teen Titans: Starfire about?

“Kori Anders’s summer job at a ritzy Santa Monica beach club is fun, but she doesn’t care about keeping up with the current trends and she’s not interested in rushing around to all the parties. She’d rather explore her inexplicable draw to the stars or hang out with her new friend, Victor Stone,” an official synopsis for the upcoming OGN reads.

“Her sister, Kira, on the other hand, is the most popular girl around,” it continues. “With the hottest clothes, an even hotter boyfriend (by the name of Tate Fairweather), and a take-no-prisoners attitude, she’s Kori’s opposite in every way. Their summer heats up when Tate’s uncle asks the girls to participate in an EDS study his pharmaceutical company is running. During treatment, Kori develops strange powers she never had before … and she might not be the only one.”

The synopsis concludes, “Can Kori persuade her sister to trust her before it’s too late? And when a carload of teens with their own powers come looking for her to warn her about a creepy stalker, she’ll learn that trust is a two-way street!”

Garcia and Picolo discuss their new graphic novel

“Working with Gabriel on the Teen Titans graphic novels is so much fun,” Garcia said. “He’s a massive talent and an incredible person … We’ve worked hard to give each Teen Titan a story that reflects not only who they are as a hero, but also who they are as a regular teenager. I can’t wait for readers to see what we’ve got in store for Starfire this summer!”

“I have so much fun working with Kami on the Teen Titans graphic novels,” Picolo added. “We’ve developed a great creative rhythm over the years, and I really hope that current and new fans like what we’re putting together with Teen Titans: Starfire.”

Teen Titans: Starfire goes on sale Tuesday, July 2 from DC.
