The previous Bombshells series was one of my favorite comics and Im looking forward to reading this one as well. This book is attempting to address incredibly important topics, and that always comes with the nervousness of whether the story can live up to its promises. Superheroes exist to do the right thing and help others, and that should include looking at the bad things done in our own society, not just other societies. I hope this series will live up to the high expectations that come with the topic. Read Full Review

I was pleased to find this was a thought provoking read with some real depth, not a halfhearted cash grab based on the popularity of stylized character statues. The theme of the issue was "American Soil", which was explored through raising serious questions about our nation's history, trajectory, and underlying values. Read Full Review

Bombshells United #1 starts off slow, but carries an impact as it steadily picks up speed! The creative team absolutely thrives in the very environment that they pioneered in the first volume. And the questions they pose, on Wonder Woman especially, echo right to the core of what any of these icons could or should stand for. All the while pushing toward a satisfying cliffhanger!

I've got a lot of faith in Marguerite Bennett after what she's achieved in the last few years across a range of series and can't wait to see where she and the artists that she gets to work with go with it. Read Full Review

Bombshells sets itself up for a new and more impressive tour of duty. Read Full Review

Despite the slower talky parts in the middle, the book really gets off to a running start, ending with a cliffhanger that has me digging back through Wonder Woman's other adversaries so I am in the know for the next issue. If women-led comics bursting with diverse women characters is your thing, pick this one up. It looks to be a hell of a ride. Read Full Review

For a first chapter, Bombshells United #1 does an excellent job of making you want to read and see more. Bennett and Sauvage continue a partnership that clearly works and are also tackling a subject matter not always widely talked about today. Read Full Review

In spite of the confusion I had with the story, it is the overall message it tells that makes Bombshells United #1 so enjoyable. Having an interest in World War II history was a big draw for me to this issue and the Bombshells in general. I will have to make it a point to pick up the first series in trade. I can see where Bennett may be going with the story line and has my interest through the first story arc at least. Read Full Review

Its not myintent to politicize a comic book story, but my interpretation of the firstissue is that its a gender-based effort to write a better world. But that shouldntsurprise anyone. It is Bombshells in an alternate reality after all. Read Full Review

It's a shame that the art is the best part of this book. I loved looking at the story but didn't particularly care to read it. Maybe it's just a first issue thing, but something tells me that it's just how this series is going to go and that it won't end up being something I enjoy reading. Time will tell, but what's here in this first issue isn't particularly fresh, exciting or interesting. The artwork, on the other hand, is all those things and more.
