There are so many things that make this book but one of the most underrated items would be the word balloons used when the Triplets are talking. It could have been a challenge to know who was talking at a given time but creating word balloons with icons representing each of the characters was a great solution and a fun aspect to the book.

Image is really on a roll right now. The quantity of original, bold, innovative books that the publisher is truly impressive, and I daresay it's likely they are rapidly becoming Vertigo's rival for compelling alternatives to the superhero genre that dominates the industry.

A welcome surprise and a great selection for anyone's pull list. Read Full Review

Lieberman has managed to have his cake and eat it too, as he satirizes adventure genres while also revelling in them. Read Full Review
