4.0 out of 5 stars Lots to like --, June 19, 2007
This review is from: Emily The Strange #2: The Lost Issue (v. 2) (Paperback)
-- and a little to dislike.

The likable includes a charming young lady. She's thrifty, as she shows in her trip to Lostco. She's athletic, a master of Extreme Clam Digging and rappeling down the retail shelves. She takes a responsible attitude towards her beloved pets, and is very creative whether you like it or not. She dresses nicely, but follows only her own fashions. There are worse nieces to have.

You might wish for a different daughter, though, and pray for a different sister - assuming your parents stayed in the business after seeing her.

I regret only her commercial side, the kind that encourages wallet-loads of Emily merchandise. I haven't checked into the audience participation / social engineering side of the Emily phenomenon, but what I've seen makes all the little hairs on my neck stand up. Take what is healthy and strong in this unique young lady, but examine the rest with a critical eye.

PS: The Amazon title credits this to DC comics, but you can see a Dark Horse logo in the upper left corner of the front cover. Caveat lector.
