I'm not a huge graphic novel fan because they are over too quickly.  I don't like a book that is done in 20 minutes. Occasionally though I pick some up because I love the look of the art.

How can you not love the cover of Lady Killer?  Each book ends with a fake advertisement aimed at 1960s housewives who are also assassins.  Think of this book as Mr and Mrs Smith set in the 60s if Mr Smith wasn't a spy.





The art in Monstress is beautiful.  I wasn't that big of a fan of the story.  I'm definitely in the minority with that opinion.  Every other review I read is raving about this book.

I did like the two tailed cats who are obviously the smartest beings around - as cats should be.This review was originally posted on Based On A True Story
