Comic Report: Athena Voltaire: The Collected Web Comics


So I've been grooving on Athena Voltaire, and it's cool, retro vibe. So I couldn't resist a trade of her earlier, Web-published adventures.

The book has two stories: The Terror in Tibet and The Wrath from the Tomb. A little rough around the edges, somewhat abreviated for the Web form -- I'd have to say I like the current comic miniseries better. But it's a fun, fast read, and the second story, in particular, has Dracula's daughter (!!!) and reminds me of my beloved Universal monster flicks.

Nazis and occult menaces and monsters -- oh my! Worth a read if you love pulp adventures and tough chicks.
