I'm completely with you - I think they turn off a fair few potential readers by relying on titilating imagery for covers, etc. However, when I actually tried the series, it quickly becomes clear that's not what the comics are about - in fact, given all of the ones I've read, sex is pretty absent. Yes, they wear skimpy and impractical outfits, and all of the women are incredibly... athletic in their physiques. But the stories are pretty good, too. The early ones aren't particularly great, but if you try Myths & Legends then you might like those.<br /><br />Wonderland is so twisted - I'm going to have to read the first mini-series, because I know there was stuff I was missing. Imagery and artwork is superb.Civilian Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10978134983999101494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25675853.post-52516118321081434442012-07-24T06:29:59.032+01:002012-07-24T06:29:59.032+01:00Great reviews!

Can't wait to see with Si and co. have in store for #3. <br /><br />I've always been on the fence about those Zenescope books. They always looked like little more than T&A cheesecake, but Wonderland looks like it has some terrific art. I may have to check it out next time I'm at my local shopAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04097784728681836446noreply@blogger.com
