3.0 out of 5 stars An interesting look into the Marvel Super Heroines, July 21, 2011

This review is from: Marvel Her-Oes (Paperback)

I must say I was impressed with this mini series, as it truly was an enjoyable read with some interesting art involved as well.

It gives out a nice look into the Superheroines of the Marvel Universe, but set in the classic teenage background setting of high school.

The reason I gave this a 3 out of 5 is due to the fact that the story sort of lacks some more well known Marvel superheroines...I mean outside She-Hulk and Wasp, due to their animated appearances, I don't think anyone would know who is Miss America or Namora, or even Moonstone.

I mean Ms. Marvel Was just a brief cameo appearance in this tale, but other than that, no one else was involved.

Which once again makes me feel sad for this mini, as it was an enjoyable read. I mean I would love to see a sequel to the tale, introducing the teenage versions of the Invisible Woman, Black Widow, and maybe Storm of the X-men.

Also having the first issue of the Savage She-Hulk at the end of the tale was a nice bonus as well. :D

I would recommend this to anyone who has a girlfriend, relationship wise or not, who is interested in comics and wishes to know more about them. As I will think that they may also find this an enjoyable read too.
