I liked it too. I thought of it as written for the same audience as other DC superhero books of the era, whatever that age is - 13+ I guess.
The Newsarama article explains the Linda Lindas reference, which I didn't know about:
However, things shouldn't get too dark or gritty as the series is intended for an all-ages audience, and according to the publisher, "sings with the energy of the Linda Lindas rocking out to 'Claudia Kishi.'"
(The Linda Lindas are, of course, an all-girl preteen punk band who went viral with a live performance video earlier this year and have a song about Claudia "Claud" Lynn Kishi, the popular Asian-American character in The Baby-Sitters Club series of books by Ann M. Martin).
I don't think they are planning to de-age Steph and Cass to 12, so I guess they mean the book will have an energy that appeals to pre-teens?
