Admittedly, I am not familiar with the Young Justice series. That being said, the art style in this book [graphic novel] is amazing. Of the DC Comics books being published by Stone Arch Books, the Young Justice series seems to have the most “comic-like” style. The shading is very meticulous, using cross-hatching and other techniques, instead of just applying shades in post-processing.

The story is a bit disjointed, but this is largely due to the continuity of the story.  It is definitely a series that you will want to start from the beginning as there are some significant plot points that are references to other books. The content of the story is very solid as the characters explore their fears with an eloquent maturity. My only complaint is that the first two explorations of fear use an excessive amount of dialogue that would have been better explained visually. The closing exploration with Superboy, while much less complicated and intricate, does a much better job and closes the story beautifully.

A great addition to your library, but I recommend starting from the beginning.
