Bitch Planet, Volume 2: President Bitch by Valentine De Landro, Taki Soma, Kelly Sue DeConnick

3.75

---

This volume collects #6-10 of 10 (not including the spin-off). 

Continuation of a super fun, bold, and well-drawn comic... This volume starts with Meiko’s backstory

(RIP). We find out that her dad, the engineer of the reality TV show, has actually been part of the resistance all along! He was intentionally sabotaging the ships! And now he’s about to fuck some shit up. We love a male ally.

We also get some trans rep!

Kamau’s sister, who she has been looking for this whole time, is trans (naturally, they keep us transes in a different facility). We also finally get to meet the infamous rebellion leader Eleanor, who has been trapped in solitary confinement.

Unfortunately, just as the story is kicking into high gear, the comic falls victim to the most dreaded villain known to Image Comics readers… Hiatus! 😱
