Yes, the artwork is more sophisticated and the technology references are more up-to-date, but the jokes are pretty much the same. On the other hand, this is listed as a sneak preview, so once the full feature debuts next issue, hopefully well see a bit more development from Jinx and her friends. Read Full Review
