I like the premise and the character, but I need to see more. More random violence. More scenes of the Citys crime zones. More villains acting with complete freedom. More about life for average citizens. I see great possibilities in a spin-off called Quick Burning Muse: Life in New Port City. The comic we have now is an amusing distraction. Its light, its fun, but it has very little substance. Jimmie Robinson has the artistic and writing talent to keep making entertaining comics. And Id like to see him expand and explore the ideas behind Bomb Queen. But for now, this isnt a must-buy. Read Full Review
Final word: Im no prude, and I am fully aware that the For Mature Readers tag on the books cover gives the creative team license to pack as much sex and violence as they see fit, but if it interferes with the narrative, it can only be a distraction which I feel is the case here and the reason I have to dock Bomb Queen a whole bullet.

The writing seems to be begging the reader to forgo any expectations about a credible plot, motivations or logic by flashing breasts on the page. Readers who want to like will probably force themselves to find something to enjoy, but those who wont like it probably can read the double D warning signs on the cover. Read Full Review
Hopefully Mr. Robinson will sharpen the bluntness of the comedy in the Bomb Queen comics; if that occurs, they would be a lot more appealing. Read Full Review
