Aquawoman and Supergirl fend off an attack from a giant, demonic squid while Stargirl learns an upsetting truth about her biological father.
This issue has a sort of Disney-esque style. The faces of our heroines are a bit rounder, and the eyes are bigger. The bodies aren't so slim, but it's a nice look. Even in a dark mood and setting, the colors are bright. Kortini's flashbacks take on a brownish hue, giving the panels a warm feeling. The shadows are done well, and the varying line weights match well with the different parts of the story. Props to this great Ant Lucia cover. The blurred parts of the cover really give off a sense of movement, and all the greens bring out the red of her hair and the gold of her accessories. Truly a nice cover. Read Full Review
The Bombshells series continues to be a real delight and one of the biggest highlights of my reading list every week. This issue is pretty much on par with last week's in what it delivers and I'm loving it. Mera's storyline is exactly what I want out of her and it feels like the character is finally getting the kind of proper characterization and exposure that she's struggled to get over the decades. Combining her with Kara her works well and I'm definitely enjoying seeing Courtney's storyline where she's going to really take ownership of her own life path now. Very good stuff all around and made even more awesome this week with Mirka Andolfo's artwork. Andolfo continues to deliver some of my favorite installments of the series with the character designs and layouts and this one is absolutely no exception, resulting in a fantastic read through the first time and a very fun exploration of the artwork and details the second time around.
