Josie and the Pussycats are on a roll like never before, racking up award wins and climbing the charts! But are the "and the Pussycats" living their dreams - or just Josie's? Are Melody and Valerie ready to try their hand at succeeding on their own terms?
And speaking of involuntary noises, I absolutely howled with laughter at the "Miranda" warning that the vanquished vote-cheating EDM band got from security guards as Josie and her girls were driving away; I never expected a legit Scientology joke to make its way into an Archie Comics title, but there it was! (I really do hope it doesn't cause them any trouble.) I also adored the throwaway "Game of Thrones" reference that got snuck in, in the form of Lord Cute-ington's full name. It was also really sweet to see poor, long-suffering Alan M. get to be onstage, articulating for the awards show audience just what we all love about Josie and the Pussycats.

(Honestly, why is the American Music Awards a thing?) Also, Audrey Mok's art is beautiful as ever,Kelly Fitzpatrick captures thepizzazz of a awards show with a flashy color palette, and Marguerite Bennett and Cameron DeOrdio's script is filled with clever jokes while still expanding upon Josie, Valerie, and Melody's thoughts and motivations as they hit the big time.

I'm a fan of one-off stories like this one which is a nice change of pace given the age of longer arcs written mainly to help sell trade paperbacks down the line. Worth a look. Read Full Review
