Wild Card by Mark Powers, Jim Butcher

3.0

The story boasts many of the the best hallmarks of the prose series: it's entertaining, action-packed, clever, and populated with characters for whom we care and cheer. Fits well within the Dresden world, with only a few minor missteps, and it was fabulous to see both Murphy and Molly be integral to the action rather than relegated to female commentary on what the men were doing.

What works against real success is the distractingly adolescent artwork. Hyper-sexualized characters are depicted in awkward proportions and poses, and everyone seems stamped out of a narrowly envisioned paper doll template that makes it difficult to distinguish from each other.
