Reviews

[Rod Brown · Rating 3 out of 5]

An amusing little sex comedy about fashion models.

This is a spin-off of another long-running webcomic called Ménage à 3. I haven't read that series, but it didn't affect my reading experience because this one is pretty self-contained, introducing a new cast of characters around the transplanted Sandra Arden, a model's assistant who catches the eye of an influential photographer and is whisked off to Paris for a new career.

The story is told in a series of four-panel gags, so there are always chuckles to be had, often spiked with cheesecake art. The humor can be crass, playing fast and loose with drunkenness, consent issues, and flirtation that crosses the line into harassment or assault.

The cast is young, attractive, sex positive, and open to or at least curious about any relationship permutation.

My library doesn't have the second volume, but fortunately Christmas is just around the corner.

3.5 stars, a light and pleasant read.

Silly and fun, with way more nudity than should be necessary! That's part of the draw, though.
