Girls With Comics

Is not a great series. Every month I buy it since it has two of my favorite DC women, Poison Ivy and Catwoman, but it does a terrible job of holding my attention. Paul Dini is usually a great writer, but the story is just lack luster. I do enjoy the scenes with the Riddler though, but he’s only in 1 issue so far. It’s also confusing to follow if you haven’t read a single modern comic in the past 3 years or so. Truth to be told, if you’re looking for a stand-alone series where you don’t need any background, this is not the series for you.

The one saving grace, and what keeps me buying the series, is the art by Guillem March. He’s one helluva artist, and I feel as though he should get more attention in the fandom. Take for example, these pieces:

He draws beautiful, exotic looking women. His art is colorful and just easy on the eyes. He is the reason I’m still interested in GCS, because the story is just lack luster. Maybe if I’m lucky I’ll one day have some OA by him…
