Another part of its appeal personally is its ability to exquisitely evoke some of the funniest and less ludicrous moments of 90's superhero comics. A pleasant trip down memory lane and a pleasant new journey in one.

Of course Alan said art should make us feel uncomfortable or challenged. So, while I may not be a big fan of watching male characters gloating as they torture a female prisoner, I can safely guess that it won't be the sole content or theme of the series as a whole. That certainly wasn't the case with the TV series. If anything I will probably now catch up on the second issue to understand said torture's context, then keep an eye on where this series is headed.
