And she has to stop being so darn lazy about everything, thinking things will just walk her way. Luckily, in the book, and after quite some time, Dee learns that there are things she is good at, and that she has skills. Sure, the captain also wasn't nice, but I can fully imagine why she is reacting towards Dee like this. Her attitude towards the captain? I hated that. Dee just thought she could get everything, not caring if she would have to hurt people. It was quite a while, and there were moments where I just wanted to put the book down and do something else. It took me some time to get used to Dee (she was exceedingly annoying), but after a while I started liking her more and more. I spotted this book a few months ago, totally forgot about it, found out about it again, and was delighted it was already out (this meant I could read it as soon as it got delivered). It has alternative views for women in power as well, the captain at the beginning is not only female, but has short hair and facial piercings.ĭefinitely one to try if you are looking for something new or want to share with a loved young one. (might be an excellent mechanic, but can't turn down a chance to buy a pretty dress). Great for little girls looking for a role model who can do things herself, but isn't exactly a Tom boy.

Even in a short collection like this there was plenty of action, character development, mystery, and emotional impact. Instantly fell in love with the characters personalities and art styles.

If you are look for a more traditional comic style but without super hero's that is better for kids (Image is my true love but they are rated M for Mature and we know they earn that rating) this is a good publisher to look into. Boom! does some great work for kids and teens. This was an incredibly cute little comic. Picked this up off the shelves today to read during my break and wound up reading the whole thing.
