A friend sent me this Battling Boy book a few months back. I placed it on my shelf, and I had forgotten about it. Anyone read this? If so, is it any good?  |

I read it last year from the library and it was a lot of fun and a visual treat. I really like Paul Pope's stuff though, so I was pre-disposed to like it. -M |

Like, does it look all cute on the outside, but inside the stories are some serious stories? Or is it fun? |

The image kind of reminds me of Jeff Smith artwork.

The book is aimed at a young adult audience, so it has a few dark moments, but for the most part remains a fun adventure tale. -M |

I had no Americam comics last week, but I did get new dutch translations of the new Soda (issue 12 was out in 2005, so it came as a bit of suprise to me that the series had started up again) and Scorpion (less unexpected). Also I got the Bounce TPB and I want to write about it, but I have to reread it first.

Preview won't load on my phone, but it's probably the "Batgirl" that's been texting her. |

Yeah, it's a fake Batgirl... while the new direction and style is alot looser, it's not THAT bad  |
