Siya oum's artwork on this is terrific. Her lines and coloring are so rich and her angles creaite a great actionfilm like flow. This was the reason for me to pick this book up.
The Story of Lola xoxo starts with a great opening scene, which reminded me a lot of Terminator 2, where Sarah Connor dreams of that playground going up in flames. The protagonist Lola tries to find her parents in a post-atomicwar-world. She gets mixed up in a battle between two factions, making enemies and friends. She's compassionate and stubborn and also very well trained in combat skills by her surrogate father conrad. It's all a bit too much of everything to be really believeable, but it tries to be and doesn't embrace the madness and over the top feeling I know from other similar stories. This is not a mad max kind of thing. So I have mixed feelings about this and at this point I'm really not sure if I'll continue reading this.

This was really more like Tailor-Tinker-Soldier-Spy than John Whick. But I guess the film will be different. Thrilling read though!
The Bitch Planet series is one of the best and most important comics of our time.
