Don't miss the start of a new series by Hugo Award nominee Zo Quinn and Spider-Gwen co-creator Robbi Rodriguez!
In a near future where humanity's needs are provided for by a godlike A.I., it's one young woman's horrible job to do tech support on it. But Cassandra Price's life changes forever when she discovers a hidden digital world beneath our own, one where a group of super-powered women are locked in a secret war for the cheat codes to reality.
Quinn and Rodriguez first issue of Goddess Mode is page after page of color and curiosity. Im greatly looking forward to Cassandras character development, learning who the three magical heroines of this new world are all about and how crazier this neon whirlwind of technology and monsters can get. Im definitely ready to find out! Read Full Review
Sassy, smart, and more than a little pissed-off, Goddess Mode #1 is another thunderous debut for the new era of Vertigo Comics. Zoe Quinn, Robbi Rodriguez and Rico Renzi build up a rich, expansive world, chock it full of ideas, and throw a trash-loving mess of a woman into the thick of it - and the result is a beautiful blast to read from start to finish. There are a lot of great comics hitting shelves this week, but I'll be damned if Goddess Mode #1 isn't the best of the bunch. Read Full Review
Zo Quinn's storytelling in GODDESS MODE #1 is off to an excellent start. Artist Robbi Rodriguez, colorist Rico Renzi, and variant cover artist Stjepan eji all expertly craft the aesthetic and show off their skills in color mixing. However, the colors fall short in vibrancy, which limits the reader's experience. Overall, GODDESS MODE #1 is still cool and unique. Read Full Review

Despite some walled exposition, Goddess Mode #1 is a title readers will want to keep on file as its witty banter and gorgeous artwork are designed to overload them in the best way. Read Full Review
As a first time comic creator, writer Zo Quinn stumbles into the all too familiar trap of trying to cram way too much into the debut issue. So far, the art keeps things going, but a simpler script would be nice. Read Full Review
Unless you just plain don't like cyberpunk dystopias, you have no reason to miss Goddess Mode #1. Even then, this is still worth a peek to make certain, as this is unlike any comic you're likely to have seen. Read Full Review
Zoe Quinn's, “Goddess Mode”, shows some promise, but only had a so-so first outing. Not all is lost here, as the art and most of the dialogue feels good. Hopefully, the story structure will tighten up moving forward. Read Full Review
This isn't a great start. I love the art and I like the world a lot. This has potential and I am curious to see where it goes now that the set up is all out of the way. But the copious amounts of exposition and lack of character really brings it down for me. Read Full Review
It's a great looking comic, but it's also an empty one. A comic by a first-time comic writer is always a toss-up, and this one did nothing for me. Read Full Review
Fans of cyberpunk that have the patience to read through it twice may find it a notable new addition to the genre. Read Full Review
The art is, frankly, beautiful, especially the scenes in Azoth. Wow! I love the use of colour!
The story is engaging too. There is plenty of present-world potential for the kind of future society presented, and it speaks to the modern world and some of our(?) fears about the future. I do, however, have a little trepidation about future issues and the potential concentration on the events in Azoth. The "real world" presented here is engrossing and worthy of plenty more attention in future issues - only time will tell if my hopes for this are borne out.
I'm a little embarrassed to say that I nearly didn't buy this title because it sounded a little bit passe and not really my cup of tea. Within three pages I was glad tha more
Uhm, it was okay? I'm interested, but only just barely.
Yeah but no. I understand what they did. I understand why they did it like this. But that didn't work well. Festival it's not original at all.
Maybe you can tell it's because I don't care about Cassandra. But's it's not true, I liked much of the story in the real word even if I kind of have a "deja vu" vibe. It was the end I don't like one bit. The patch mean girl who let her rot, and the other mocking her.
Cover - Nice but just present Cassandra, and not really in link to what I read. 1/2
Writing - It's don't like the beginning (The two first page), not all the end. I didn't succeed to make me care for Cassandra. 1.5/2
Arts - I like the art. I find something like Capullo or Murphy in the characters. He don't choos more
It isn't terrible, but not for me. The character designs are legit garbage though, maybe that was the point given the story...
Way too much exposition and dialogue for something that does almost nothing new. It's just cyberpunk. How original. The characters aren't very original either. It's the same trope of a pissed off rebellious person thrust into an important role because, yes, they are that special.
This comic is very generic and boring. We got our Super Special Rebellious Protag, endless dialogue exposition, stupid magic girl outfits, it’s all so boring while trying very hard to be special and unique. Will not continue with this one, thanks.
