Now this is a Brian Michael Bendis comic book.
(Although to be fair, the credits give co-writing credit to David F. Walker.)
But this is a story that is rolling out at a very deliberate, decompressed rate of speed.
It follows the story of a teenage girl named Naomi who has a mysterious past - and she's convinced it's connected somehow to the world of superheroes.
So she sets out to investigate, and oh so slowly, she's uncovering bits of information that indicate her origins are... interesting.
With this, the fourth issue, she starts getting some answers - but as with such things in the real world, more answers also bring new questions - and her story is not going to be a simple one to untangle.
With terrific, funny dialogue and fresh artwork by Jamal Campbell, this series is a lot of fun.
It requires patience - this story is taking its sweet time rolling out - but it's fun and rewarding, fresh and different.
Recommended!
