Jem: Dimensions brings both new and beloved creators to the world of The Holograms! In a story by Kate Leth and Tana Ford, the Holograms throw a Dungeons and Dragons game night with Jerrica as the Dungeon Master, and even Synergy joins the fun! And in Sophie Campbell's story, the Misfits (plus some NEW faces) take a break to go on a ski trip, when all hell breaks loose...and so does Pizzazz's cat!
Bullet points:
* This anthology book features 2 self-contained stories in each issue! Double the rock-n-roll fun!
* Welcome back Sophie Campbell to the world of Jem!
Jem and the Holograms: Dimensions is a super fun romp with a huge cast of female characters. This book not only passes the Bechdel test, but smashes it into pieces. The characters are well-rounded, diverse, and unafraid to be themselvesno matter how outrageous. Read Full Review

JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS: DIMENSIONS #1 is a promising start to a new series. With fresh takes on the same beloved characters, fans of the all-female 80's punk band will be pleased. The short story format doesn't allow plots to fully develop, but the glamorous art and inclusive representation make for a worthwhile read. Read Full Review

The storytelling is tight, effective, and seemingly effortless. But in it resides great guffaw-worthy dialogue and a true sense of tabletop gaming chaos. Plus, Leth embellishes the various characters while also introducing each of their in-game D&D characters. The correlation of each revealed more about the Holograms through their player characters, organically. Read Full Review
