Danger Girl: The Ultimate Collection
by Andy Hartnell
Stories that are based in homage and cliche need to offer something extra to separate themselves from the stories they are based on. This only really offers art. Their isn't necessarily humor. A lot of the jokes can be predicted long before the punch-line is delivered. A few moments stand out where the cliches are pushed far enough to be interesting, but the majority drags. The story is not interesting beyond parody, and the characters are too one-dimensional for even parody. The entire cast are stock characters, and I even found myself forgetting they existed when they weren't shown for a few pages. The art is great and consistent, and it is really the main reason to read this. There are some single panels that I liked. I've always been fond of J. Scott Campbell's facial expressions. I liked the fonts, too. Overall, Danger Girl is more than a bit dull, but it might be worth it to skim and just look at the pictures.
