Not really for me, starting to get a little disenchanted with any comic with that much dimorphism between male and female characters.

In the early 2000s, this was my first introduction to Brian Michael Bendis and rereading it, I'm so happy I did then and now. Powers is a really a police procedural that just happens to be set in a world where superpowers exist. Bendis does a great job of just giving readers enough information to keep them wanting more without just info dumping. Now, he is very guilty of dialogue dumping though and I can see how some readers wouldn't like that but I feel he writes comics like people actually speak. Michael Avon Oeming's art is also not for everyone but I think it fit this book really well. Overall, a classic that should be a must read for comics' fans.

Forgot how much I loved this series. It’s been years since I read it so almost everything felt new to me. Great great stuff!

I've read it before and it's still good.
