Reviews

[Sean Goh]

A skeleton in the closet comes out to haunt Tranquility, and some characters get some much needed backstory. Has its funny moments, too.

[Sean]

I really love Gail Simone's work and I really hated this. Uneven plot, terrible dialogue, plot holes, typos, and art that doesn't fit the seriousness of the story. I'm at a loss.

Linda continuación para una serie divertida, aunque el cénit lo haya alcanzado al final del primer volumen (segundo tomo yanqui, tercero español). Me gustó la resolución desde el lado de la pelea, no tanto desde la de los personajes. Me sorprendió que para ser de Gail Simone peca bastane del síndrome "Women in refrigerators", aunque los padecimientos que sufre acá una mujer no son el desencadenante de una venganza masculina sino propia. Si algún día sacan ooootra continuación (cosa improbable ahora que WildStorm no existe), seguro me la lea.

I was actually surprised by the copyright on this--just judging by the story and the art (especially the art) I thought that the series had to be older than I thought it was.

¡Bienvenidos a la salida de la Ciudad más retroestambótica y divertida del entonces renacido Universo WildStorm!
