The art in this by Tonci Zonjic is some of the best I saw in 2009. *Everyone* should pick up this book just to look at it. The story is actually not badly done, and there is some nice little touches here and there, but overall, it feels too target-marketed. Though they tried to back off the whole "Sex & the City" comparison that Marvel's hype machine initially ran with, it's hard not to think that's what they wanted. Given that Marvel would never do a MARVEL BROMANCE book starring seco...more
I read the first issue of this series when it came out and it was ridiculous how it was trying to pander to the Sex and City set. So when when the trade finally came out I had to see if the fun continued and boy did it!
As a female comics reader, I enjoy seeing titles that feature women, especially when in the role of being the strong protector instead of the one who needs saving, but this was just over the top in trying to cater to women. There is even a scene with wigs and each wi...more

This really is exactly like sex in the city, right down to one of the girls being a writer and another one coming down with cancer. (There is also a playful nod to Sex and the City within the story.) Four female friends talk about boyfriends and their lives. That being said, it is an interesting way to try and appeal to a type of person that would read an old school romance comic or a harlequin novel. It was funny and I did enjoy it, although I kind of wish the plot hadn't actually been bo...more
It was just... not right. Strong female characters led around by uninteresting plots (Captain Marvel has to get a strange artifact for Doctor Voodoo... by wearing a gorgeous dress and buying it. Ehm... superpowers, anyone?). Also, I felt they weren't really strong, they just were superficial.
I am sure you can do a gorgeous story about how a superheroine and her friends get over cancer, but it isn't this one. At least i can say that at the very last chapter, where Starfire uses a bit...more

I liked this one a lot. It was fun reading about the lesser known female superheroes, especially when they acknowledge in the storyline that they are lesser known. It had a very "Sex and the City" feel to it.
Fuck yeah, misogyny!!!! >:(
