Review of
Faith #1 comic
Five out of five stars
A new size of super heroine
This comic
introduces a new super heroine (Faith), one that packs both superpowers and
significant size. She is clearly meant to appeal to girls that have bodies larger
than what is considered the ideal. Her dialogue and relationship interactions
are also very female in nature. She tries to balance the super heroine persona
with that of just trying to be a regular woman in a complex culture. Her job is
that of a writer for an online publication, so it is relatively easier for her
to keep her personal life from that of saving the world.
Since it
clearly fills a specific niche market, this is a comic that will have a lot of
appeal to certain groups. However, like most characters that have specific
physical characteristics, Faith may not appeal to other groups. Which would be
unfortunate, for it would be an educational experience for them.
