Marvel: Powers of a Girl by Lorraine Cink
5.0
I've been following artist Alice X. Zhang for years, ever since I discovered her work on DeviantArt, so I was excited to pre-order this book, and it does not disappoint. The work is dynamic and diverse, with lots of energy and body types, typical of her style.
The writing is also good, with positive messages about leadership and strength, but also fragility and failings, not because the subjects are girls/women, but because they are human. Although a lot of the slang is going to seem dated later on, the message is still a good takeaway no matter the era.
