DC Comics: Bombshells Vol. 3: Uprising by Marguerite Bennett

3.0

---

So, I love the premise of Bombshells a lot. And I'm enjoying reading it. But I do think it can get a little... crowded sometimes. Even overly-ambitious. I love the idea of all these female DC heroes teaming up to defeat Nazis, but sometimes it feels like the writer is trying so hard to get every single female hero in on the action that, as a reader, you're overwhelmed with "wait, who's here? Have I been introduced to this character yet? Am I supposed to know who they are? Where did so-and-so go?" It's cool, but also too much, y'know? I find myself enjoying the smaller stories with one or two (or even three and four) heroes far more than the big blowout "here's a dozen characters you should recognize in a two-page spread" scenes.

So yeah. Definitely still enjoying the story overall, but it's too crowded for me to give this one more than three stars.
