Shade has shed her alien identity. She's stepped out of her original Earth body and into another one. Now, free of the burdens of any past life, and finally on her own, she sets out to see more of her new home. But how does she cope when the madness takes all the human emotions she was forced to confront in the Milk Wars and turns them into a bouillabaisse of memory and confusion? And to make it even more challenging, Shade must also face her namesake, the original Changing Man.
It really comes down to this. If you liked Shade, the Changing Girl, you will love Shade, the Changing Woman. If you hadnt read the first series, you ought to, and may as well start picking this one up. Read Full Review

Shade the Changing Woman brings readers who are returning right back to where the title left off last year while leaving new readers in the metaphoric dust. While it fails as a jumping on point, the team stays true to form, keeping all of the signature aspects of Shade readers have grown to love while continuing Lomas journey forward. Young Animal continues to pump out one great title after another, and this second wave of new titles is off to an amazing start. Read Full Review

I also like Marley Zarcone's art in this issue. It was very cartoon-like. I loved the think lines, and it's cleaner not as sketchy as other comics I've read in the recent past. I definitely want to learn more about Shade's limbo world. I want to know who the person in the funky coat is, and I want to learn what happened to her Avian body, and whats next for her.

I'm 14 and this is deep. Overly purple writing... and a lack of linearity in the story made this a bit of a chore to read. Light years better than Milk Wars, but missing the charm of the previous volume. The art is still fantastic. Read Full Review
