Things heat up as the origins of the mysterious Magic Socks are revealed! After betraying Gwen and Rita, Daphne engages in an epic battle against her little cousin Josie. This second issue is stuffed to the gills with an action-packed story, bonus art, soundtrack, and sketchbook. Plus, a variant cover by the legendary BILL SIENKIEWICZ! Pure fun! Pure flavor!
Flat-out, I loved this book. It's just fun and ridiculous and totally over the top. I wish there was a little more in the way of character development, or even a pause to explore some of the wild idea and imagery Mahfood lays out for us. But I'm not really complaining about it. I love the energy in this book. I love the little side jokes and commentary from background characters. I love that Mahfood just seems to be having a whole hell of a lot of fun with this book. And that translates to me, to us readers. It works. The Grrl Scouts are just fucking badasses, man. Read Full Review
An excellent issue that reveals much in a cool flashback and delivers stunning visuals. Read Full Review
A book which is an art form onto itself. However, the writing is really for people with a juvenile sense of humor. Read Full Review
Wild and weird, but with a solid story that's only just beginning to open up. I'm on board for the ride. Read Full Review
Perhaps the problem is me as Im looking for too much in a stoner comedy about magic socks that have traveled throughout history. Looking at Jim Mahfoods brash art you can see a style that is creative and unquestionably its own. It will not take long to know if this book is for you or not, and I freely admit it is not in my wheelhouse. Still, that does not excuse some of the glaring story problems that stop this from being an enjoyable comic. Read Full Review
