Review of 'The adventures of Superhero Girl' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
A big reason I'm trying to read more Hicks, I really enjoyed this reread a lot. A lot of fun not too flashy or pretentious humour. Just a regular girl being super. Hicks strikes a nice balance between the plot arch of individual strips and a general sense of time progression overall.
As with Friends With Boys, Hicks continues to focus in on relationships, particularly family relationships. I enjoyed the ordinary hum drum nature of Hicks style ()? because there was that humorous point on each page. There seemed to be a bit more logical causation for things that happened, and people's relationships did in fact gradually develop throughout the comic's run.
